Teachers impregnated 10,000 girls in Kenya

[Governor Palin]

A report released monday on the rate of sexual abuse in Kenyan schools passes a strong indictment on the teaching profession. It says that last year alone, teachers impregnated 10,000 girls across the country. The report however says the number could be higher as only 10 percent of such incidents were reported. This year's KCSE examinations began with revelations of some candidates being expectant as they sat for their papers. Though not any more surprising as such cases are becoming common, research carried out by the centre for rights education and awareness in conjunction with the teachers service commission finds teachers highly culpable for sexual abuse of girls. What fails to add up is the rate of reporting cases of sexual abuse, which stands at a low 10 percent, with a meager figure of 633 cases reported between 2003 and 2007. The study attributes this silence to barriers by parents, head teachers and even district education officers due to corruption and fear of the repercussions.

This is what I fail to understand; don't these teachers go through security checks before they are employed? If not, it should be made mandatory for all teachers to undergo security checks. These are not teachers but paedophiles and sex predators masquerading as professionals, and they should not be anywhere near schools.

What I find surprising and shocking is the silence by parents for fear of repercussion. Jesus Christ! Your daughter is being abused and you just keep quite?!

Kenyan people arise and demand protection for our sisters and daughters from this gross violation human rights.

I think first and foremost teachers in Kenya especially in the rural areas are on a pedestal. That also makes a teacher eligible among the "students". Some parents look the other way hoping maybe the daughter will end up getting married to teh teacher.

I actually know like 4 men who married their high school students, and it is not frowned upon.

I think Kenyan has not done enough to protect the girl child. Recently a motion has been introduced to ensure that any teacher complicit with having sex with a student will immidietly loose their teachers licence.

that is a good direction we are heading, esp because the media is also really now telling as it is

Let's hope so. These teacher-pupil sexual liaisons must be stopped if Kenya has to move forward. These girls are being robbed of their youth and at the same time denied their right to education.
