| 1623744999069487104 | Can @EduMinKenya come out clear with guidelines on this issue once and for all? We're not a white man's colony anymore. Shaving girls hair is a diktat of white supremacists who taught that black hair is unkempt n must be shaved. It's a shame we still perpetuate this primitivism https://t.co/uhqcSGK3ts | 15 |

| 1625722941148102656 | KCPE scandal of registering CBC Grade 7 pupils as Standard 8 candidates is real.
