Wheelchair-bound student returns after a decade to top KCSE at Borborwet secondary

Imagine failing to sit the KCSE after suffering a life-changing injury during a school rugby match…spending a decade at home… and then returning in a wheelchair to write the national exam and emerge the top student in your school. This is the inspiring story of Alex Kipkurui who ten years ago sustained a spinal injury that left him confined to a wheelchair, forcing him to drop out of school. A decade later, he finally got a chance to sit the KCSE and beat the odds. Alex topped the roll at Borborwet secondary school, scoring a B plain.
