WECHE MOKADHO
;
Ayie gi paro ma nyiri moko nigo mar dhialo nyako mane okalo maber kendo obedo namba 36. Kata kamano, yo ma gi kete to ok ber ahinya. Is this lady great because she passed well orbecause she defeated some men?
Gitemo kete ni olich nikech onyono chwo. Gender issues are very sensitive and we must be careful not bring in men-women competition. Passing well is the positive issue here that needs to be reinforced, and not "defeating some men"
It would also be more economical to organise such a fete for a couple of girls, rather than just one.
Above all, we must make the learning environment female-friendly. Recently, I participated in a function in Alego that was donating "always" packets to girls 11 yrs+. Ma nikech nyirigi lew ne skul kata kuom Juma every month nikech weche mag periods.
Lastly, in last years'KCSE exam, nitiere nyako moro mane okadho maber kabisa Lwak girls, almost as well as the leding candidate in Nyanza, but was not appropriately graded by the press. It is utterly demoralising for the press to keep following candidates from well to do families and ignore struggling cases.
