Kapsabet Boys High School principal Kipchumba Maiyo has pledged to pay Yusuf Aker’s school fees for the next 4 yrs.
Aker had earned a place at the school after scoring 380 in the 2019 KCPE exam.
He had been forced to repeat Class 8 after failing to raise fees required to join Form One.
Aker currently lives with his grandmother, 82-year-old Chepisogei Lotegu after his father and nine other siblings were killed in a banditry attack on the border of Pokot and Samburu when he was just 3 years old.
