Now you understand why things don’t move in Kenya. Our best fled/were given full scholarships to universities abroad.

The top girl in 2019 KCSE Maryanne Njeri Baraza said she wants to go to Harvard, study medicine, and live in Boston, USA. No Kenya in her future plans.

She made good her plans, she is now a biomedical engineering student at Dartmouth college, an Ivy League college, and may well apply to Harvard Medical school since medicine in America is a postgraduate professional course.

But can you blame her really in a country where semi illiterate politician thieves are billionaires and PhD holders are broke and tarmacking?
