A set of triplets from Kajiado County have stunned many after excelling in the just-released KCPE 2021 results.
In a report on a local TV station, Shadrack, Meshack and Abednego Solonka who sat for exams at Iltilal Primary School all managed to score above 400 marks in the national exams.
The triplets scored 412, 408 and 401 marks respectively.
Shadrack disclosed that they lived at the headteacher’s house since the school had no boarding school facilities, further sending a huge shout out to their parents.
“We used to stay at the headteacher’s place because there was no boarding. The headteacher decided to give us a place to stay so we could be close to the school
“We also thank our parents who made sure we never missed school,” he said.
The triplets hope to join the same school for their secondary school education.
