Primary school pupils in Kenya block road with desks after their school was demolished

 

Movement was paralysed along Mbagathi Road, Kenya on Monday morning after pupils of Kenyatta Golf Course Academy, barricaded the busy road to protest the demolishing of their school.

Details are still sketchy but reports indicate that the private school was demolished by unknown persons over the weekend following a land dispute.

The pupils placed their desks across the road and sat on them, blocking traffic in the morning rush hour.

"We want our school, we want our school, we need to study in school" they chanted. I like my class and I like studying. They have now removed our class and there is no way we can study. All the students want to study," one pupil stated.
