Students at Chebwagan Boys High School in Kericho have returned home indefinitely after a night strike on January 11, 2026. The Kericho County Director of Education ordered the closure amid student anger over the administration's failure to provide glucose and uphold dietary standards for last year's KCSE candidates, compounded by dissatisfaction with poor national exam results. Police oversaw the students' departure with their belongings the following morning.
