High Court Orders Reinstatement of Litein Boys KCSE Candidates in Damages Case

A Kericho High Court has issued orders allowing Form Four students of Litein Boys High School to sit their national exams after paying an initial Ksh10,000 to cover damages to school property.

The ruling was made on Tuesday, October 21, 2025 following three petitions issued by lawyers representing more than 2500 parents.

Parents had initially moved to court to challenge the Ksh69 million damages fee, which meant every student would pay Ksh49,000, which they termed as punitive and unexplained following unrest that led to the destruction of property on September 21.

The court therefore ordered that each student should pay Ksh. 10,000 from the initial Ksh. 25,000 inorder to be allowed to seat for the KCSE exams.
