Teen pregnancy, marriages blamed for high dropout

By Tsozungu Kombe

All education stakeholders in Kilifi County have been urged to team up in a bid to reduce high dropout rate among school girls.

A Community volunteer in Kaloleni Sub-County Zubeda Kilonzo attributed the high dropout rate to early marriages and pregnancies as well as sexual abuse.

She urged the relevant government agencies to arrest the situation by taking stern action on those involved in abusing girl-child rights.
