Embu student slashes lab technician's head in attempt to attack head teacher.


   By Elisha Odoyo

Police in Embu county are holding a student of Macumo Day Secondary School for questioning after he allegedly attacked a laboratory technician on Friday, October 12. The student whose name is withheld for ethical reasons, is said to have been irked by the institution's head teacher who he targeted but the sharp panga landed on Anthony Njuki and cut his head.

It is not known where the learner got the attack weapon. Apart from the head injury, Njuki also suffered a broken arm and was rushed to hospital for treatment where he is recuperating well. Embu County Kenya National Union of Teachers (KNUT) chairman, Dickson Mbarire, condemned the incident confirming the irate student also assaulted his school mates who prevented him from unleashing more attack. Mbarire said the motive behind the attack is yet to be established even as the aggressor remains detained at Embu police post.
