A poor girl known as Brigid Bonareri Manduku from Kisii who scored a mean grade of B- (Minus) in the Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE) has resulted to working in farms after missing out on university placement.
The girl’s plight was shared by police officer Sammy Ondimu Ngare who is also a philanthropist.
She managed the following grades:
BRIGID BONARERI MANDUKU INDEX: 43715127049 MEAN GRADE B- AGP 53 ENG B- KIS C+ MAT D BIO B- CHE C- GEO A BUS B+
Her grades indicate that she qualifies for a Diploma in Nursing at the Kenya Medical Training College. Brigid says that her passion is nursing. She also qualifies for a Bachelor’s Degree in Education.
Student who scored A (83) given 3 days to raise Sh. 207,000 for University fees
According to Ngare, Brigid made it through school by God’s grace and help from teachers who paid her fees every now and then. After she completed secondary school, Brigid resigned to her fate and went to work in farms.
Her family was so poor that she had barely made it through secondary school; there was no way she could ever step in college.
Here’s her plight as was shared by Ngare:
