The top candidate at Kyeni Girls High School in Nyeri, Jackline Kambura Thuranira, has made a name for herself and her school in the county and country after scoring an A in the recently released 2023 KCSE examinations.
While speaking to Education News, she attributed her remarkable success to hard work, discipline and obedience.
“The support and encouragement from my family has been a driving force to this accomplishment, I did my best and I’m very happy,” she added.
Jackline said that she has always dreamt of becoming a doctor and her exceptional results have fueled her determination to pursue Medicine at the University of Nairobi.
“My dream to be a doctor started when I was a little girl, I remember one day I caught a bird and had an operation. I also want to help people,” she said.
While Jackline excelled in Mathematics, Chemistry, Biology and Physics, she admitted that Kiswahili and English presented significant challenges.
“English and Kiswahili were a bit challenging but I managed to navigate through the difficulties and achieved remarkable results across all subjects,” she said.
Her sister Loise Mwendwa described her as an obedient girl who was serious with her studies.
“She is very hardworking and we are happy with her results. She has made us proud,” Mwendwa said.
