The government has explained why students from Tanzania have been spotted crossing the border at Isebania town into Kenya to learn at Nyamaharaga Primary School.
During a press briefing, County Director of Education Elizabeth Otieno said that the students were Kenyans who live across the border in Tanzania.
“These are Kenyan nationals whose parents live across the border and therefore have the right to learn in Kenyan schools,” she stated.
