The teacher is reported to have been so close to the girl that he kept using her name when giving examples during his CRE lessons. To the chagrin of other students, she became the teacher’s pet.
On that particular weekend, the two left the school compound early. The girl sought permission from the teacher on duty with a reason that her mother back home was not feeling well.
Minutes later, the teacher was seen leaving the school compound. This, however, did not raise alarm since it was not odd for students and teachers to leave school early.
Noises
At 4pm, the other students left for home. But on the way, two boys decided to relieve themselves in the bushes next to a cattle dip.
They were, however, attracted by funny noises emanating from one of the rooms used for mixing acaricides in the abandoned cattle dip. They tiptoed thinking that whoever was in the room was experiencing some form of pain. They even feared the person might have been attacked by a wild animal.
Instead, before their eyes, lay their teacher and fellow student in frenzied intimacy. They were nude on the cemented floor and did not hear the two.
They tiptoed back and called fellow students to witness what had been rumoured all along as a steamy relationship between the teacher and his student.
The students, almost numbering 20, after seeing what was going on, raised the alarm, which attracted the public. In an attempt to dress fast, condoms fell from the teacher’s pocket.
Annoyed members of the public frogmarched the two in their birthday suits to Kaboson AP Camp, about two kilometres away.
When the school girl was interrogated, she said it was the first time the two were getting intimate and said the teacher had promised to buy her a mobile phone if she consented.
Cheleget Location Chief David Tulmat confirmed the incident and said the teacher had been handed over to the police. He said he will be charged for defiling a minor once investigations are complete.
untrained
Education officials contacted said the teacher was not an employee of the Teachers’ Service Commission, but worked as an untrained teacher under the board of governors.
The school’s administration confirmed the teacher had been fired.
Even with stiff penalties against defilement, cases of teachers cannodling with their pupils, some as young as 13, continue unabated.
From universities to the low primary schools, lust from teachers, ‘love’ from gullible star-struck young girls and pregancies and abortions are the order of the day.
Cases abound of teachers sneaking students dressed in civilian clothing into lodgings or their houses in many parts of Kenya.
But as far as ‘venues’ go, an abandoned cattle dip within close vicinity of the school — and in broad daylight to boot — ranks as a first.
