The death of a Form Four female student at Nyarongi Mixed Secondary School in Suna East Sub-county has prompted police in Migori County to initiate an investigation.
The applicant, who was 20 years old at the time, committed suicide in the dormitory on Wednesday morning, according to Area Assistant Chief George Owiti.
Mr. Owiti stated that the student had been exhibiting symptoms of depression the day before she committed suicide, and that she had often expressed her desire to commit suicide.
The girl was kept company the entire night of August 3, 2021, according to the local assistant chief, to ensure she did not take her life.
Mr. Owiti said the student committed suicide while other learners were in the classrooms sitting for their Continuous Assessment Test (CAT).
It could not be immediately established why the student killed herself.
