Drama enfolded Saturday after fire
broke out at Isinya Multi-Purpose Development Training Center, the venue where
Education Cabinet Secretary Jacob Kaimenyi was presiding over Kajiado County
Education Day. The fire is said to have started after a drunkard threw a piece
of cigarette on the dry grass.
Hundreds of students and teachers attending the
function were evacuated by security agents as others struggled to fight the
fire. The fire spread so fast that in 30 minutes, it had consumed grass in a
field of more than 30acres to the chagrin of area herders currently facing
fodder scarcity. Kajiado residents urge urged county government to purchase
fire engines to help in cases of fire outbreak.
