State tracking parents of 53,000 learners out of school in Meru
Public Service PS Mary Kimonye and Infrastructure PS Mwangi Maringa talk to pupils of Beetu Junior Academy in Tigania West, Meru County on January 11, 2021.
Administrators in Meru County have intensified tracking of parents whose children are yet to report back to school, as it emerged that more than 53,000 learners are still missing from institutions in the region.
Public Service Principal Secretary Mary Kimonye and her Infrastructure counterpart Mwangi Maringa said the government will now resort to use of phone data to track parents to ensure all children report back to school.
