According to the family’s ‘spokesman’ Charles Odhiambo, their kin was neither qualified electrician nor had technical know-how in handling electricity, faulting the principal for his untimely death. He blamed the school’s Principal who contacted their kin to handle such a complex task and yet he had not undergone any training as electrician

“Once the KPLC and police are done with their part, we as the family will also demand answers from the school administration because the boy does not have any papers. How can a layman come in the school on abroad daylight and try to reconnect power that KPLC had disconnected? posed Odhiambo.
