It's a big win for the Muslim community in Narok after the county government allocated Sh15.8 million to construct a public Muslim girls' school in the county.

The public day school will be the first of its kind in the county and Muslim community has an opportunity where girls will be instilled with Islamic teachings, beliefs and traditions as they learn.

Speaking during the commissioning of the construction of the classrooms, the Narok Islamic Welfare Society Chairman Mahmud Hassan Yunis said the school will accommodate all learners regardless of their religious background.

The construction entails the building of six classrooms, an administration block and an ablution block, and is expected to be completed within six months. "The school is being commissioned in our holy month of Ramadan, I believe it is a blessed school and we invite all students from all backgrounds to join the school," he said.
