Some schools that were torched in Nakuru and Baringo districts at the height- of student riots are yet to re­open for the third term.

Reconstruction of burnt buildings was going on.

Mr Charles Malatit, the principal of Kabarnet High School in Baringo, where a Sh20 million dormitory was razed, said the board of governors (BOG) had not set a date for reopen­ing.

"The BOG will meet soon to decide the date when the students will come back," he said.

The principal could not give the cost of renovation but said millions would be spent considering the dor­mitory was built at a cost of Sh2O mil­lion.

At Shiners Boys High School where a dormitory was burnt, Form One and Two students reported yesterday ac­companied by their parents.

Mr Peter Kiragu, the school princi­pal, told The Standard that each stu­dent was required to bring Sh 1,000 to meet the cost of damage.
