Top-scoring students from Nyaikuro Secondary School in Nyamira County in the 2024 Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE) examination results are eyeing to pursue coveted courses in engineering and health sciences.

Clifford Ogato and Mary Onkundi, both of whom scored A (minus), hope to be enrolled in Mechanical Engineering and Bachelor of Science in Nursing, respectively.

Speaking to the press, they said they were grateful to the almighty God for their remarkable performance and that they were optimistic that they will be enrolled in their dream careers once the Kenya Universities Central Placement Service (KUCCPS) portal opens this year.

Mary Onkundi said she appreciated the school administration, which gave her a lot of support despite her vulnerable economic background by ensuring that she was not sent home for school fees.
