The KCPE results were officially revealed on Monday, and parents are already in celebration mode, showering their children with gifts to appreciate them for doing well in school and to encourage them to study harder in the future.
Sheryl, a student who scored over 400 marks, was given a Toyota Landcruiser by Dolla Kabarry, a prominent Luo artist, and his wife as a fulfillment of a promise they had made.
Reacting to the choice of the gift, the majority of online users believe that giving a car to a young child is excessive, and that it may encourage other youngsters to prod their parents to buy them goods they cannot afford.
Others said that is it so disappointing to see people still spending much on leisure especially during this difficult economic times where the cost of food is rising exponentially.
