Parents blamed parents for collaborating with the culprits
Over 20 school girls in Narok have been impregnated and forced to drop out of school sparking fury within the Children's Office.
The girls aged between 12 and 16 years were learners at Ntarakuai Primary School, Loita High School and Ilkerin Boarding in Narok South sub-county.
The region's Children's Officer Julius Ngoko confirmed that six girls have already delivered while 15 are pregnant.
"Ten girls are from Ntarakuai Primary, six Loita High School and five from Ilkerin Boarding," she said.
Mr Ngoko blamed parents for collaborating with the culprits and secretly planning to marry off their girls to suitors who impregnate them.
He warned that the Government would deal with such people, saying they are denying children their democratic right to education.
The officer said the girls got pregnant during the long November and December holidays.
