A memorial service for 21 children who perished in a tragic fire at Endarasha Academy one year ago is set to be held today at Consolata Cathedral Institute in Nyeri.
As families and the community gather to honor the young lives lost, grieving parents have said that the pain is still fresh made worse by the lack of answers. They lament that investigations into the cause of the fire have stalled, with no official word shared to date. Even DNA results meant to help identify some of the victims remain unreleased.
While today’s service offers a moment of remembrance, parents continue to call for justice and closure, one year after the tragedy that shattered their lives.
