Two secondary schoolgirls have been expelled after they allegedly confessed that they were devil worshippers.
Parents at Tulwo Girls High School yesterday resolved to send home the two and directed the school administration not to readmit them.
The parents and teachers association chairman, Mr Josephat Serem, said the decision was arrived at to reduce tension in the school.
He said the girls confessed that they were devil worshippers to fellow students.
They had been locked in a room for prayers before Nandi secondary teachers union leader Paul Rotich stormed the school and rescued them and took them to hospital.
At a separate prayer meeting, the clergy, led by retired Anglican Bishop Thomas Kogo, expressed concern that devil worshipping had taken root in public schools.
“The government should ensure devil worshipping does not ruin students,” Bishop Kogo said.
