Father disowns daughter

Celebrations and excitement by those who faired well in last years KCSE exams may just be beginning to fade away, but for one candidate it has been a week of misery. Margaret Waithera received a thorough beating from her father for failing in the exams. Waithera who scored a D+ is now living with a neighbor in Juja after running away from home and as Rita Tinina reports, its a case of a father disowning his daughter over grades.

@connoisseurnic FACT. compaired to kenyans europeans are all millionaires! EU countries have a GPD per capita that ranges from 35 - 50k. EU countries spend money on luxury's like Free Schools, Free Healthcare, Security, Emergency Services, Transport Infrastructure and Benefits for our needing! Kenya's GDP is 0.7k and they have nothing!

Your 90% figure is a made up fact so please don't say FACT.

It is silly to credit any Kenyan for English fluency. Infact a majority should feel ashamed for losing job oportunities to Spanish and French speakers due to poor phonetics! Call a spade a spade, Kenya is an ex-British colony and a traditional English speaking country and whatever dog´s pride some guys are trying to wave or feel, at the end of the day it's your language and you have to speak it well.I pity the girl but good English for her is like good Spanish for a Mexican or Argentine!
