Lynn Nyawira Kamathi, the girl from a poor family in Meru County who scored straight As in the 2021 KCSE exams, has finally moved to the United States for further studies. Lynn who hails from Bubui had scored an A of 82 points at Chogoria Girls.
Lynn has already started her BSc in Data Science studies at the Smith College Massachussettes, USA.
Nyawira has always been a performer. In December 2017, she was the best pupil in Abogeta West with 434 in KCPE.
Nyawira scored a mean grade of A with an A in English, A in Kiswahili, A in Mathematics, A in Biology, A Minus in Physics, B Plus in Chemistry, A Minus in Geography, an A in CRE.
“Lynn Nyawira was selected as part of the 40 students from Kenya to study their undergraduate degrees in America,” Abogeta West ward MCA Kiogoria Matae who had been sponsoring Lynn said.

After sitting for her KCPE in 2017, Nyawira had nearly missed the opportunity to join a good high school. She had two other siblings who were in high school already and her mother was contemplating taking her to a nearby school due to lack of school fees.
Her siblings had also accumulated fee balances in their respective schools and their mother was yet to clear.
