On Wednesday, some parents showed up at the school to protest the youngsters’ deaths.
They expressed disappointment that the school was not promptly closed following the incident.
A parent said, “Why should the school reopen. The street is still smelling of the flesh of dead bodies. The exam should be postponed and students given automatic promotion is possible.”
Another mother lamented saying, “It is embarrassing that the school reopened today. How will the government do such? What do they want other mothers to be thinking of. My daughter is not in school and I have come to tell them that she must not fail. If they are heartless, I am not.”
