Nyanza's traditional academic giants were yesterday beaming with confidence and excitement after another year of excellence in the Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE) examinations.
Maranda, Ng'iya, Maseno and Mbita high schools are the toast of the region with hundreds of students scoring A plain.
Unlike the past where private schools stole the limelight, there was jubilation in several public schools in the region.
At Maranda, last year's class recorded a mean of 9.7.
