The cause of death for Emmanuel Kirimi Kaimenyi, a Form one student who tragically passed away just ten days after being admitted to Kilungu Boys School, has been revealed as an infection, according to an official statement from the school.
Kennedy Malinda, the Chairman of the Kilungu Boys School’s Board of Management, disclosed on Saturday that the autopsy results clarified the cause of the boy’s death as an infection, dispelling earlier speculations surrounding injuries from bullying.
“I had promised to issue a statement on the unfortunate incident of our student who passed on at Kilungu Boys School. The postmortem was done this afternoon at Chiromo Mortuary by the Government pathologist in the presence of all interested parties. The results indicated that it was a natural death caused by an infection,” he stated.
Kirimi fell ill on the morning of Thursday, January 25, and was promptly taken to Kilungu Sub County Hospital, where he was pronounced dead upon arrival.
Joshua Kaimenyi, the father of the deceased, recounted receiving a phone call from the principal informing him to go to the school, where he was then informed of his son’s death. “He was accompanied by two teachers and two prefects where the doctor confirmed that he had died,” he said.
The principal reported the incident and recorded a statement with the DCI.
