Students of St Mary’s Mission Hospital High School in Lang’ata yesterday protested the harassment by suspected hired goons. The students camped outside the hospital compound after security officers denied them entry.

The learners were sent home last week after Assumption Sisters of Nairobi (ASN) took over ownership of the school. The demonstrating students, who were joined by parents, asked the Government to intervene and ensure that they continued with their studies.
