Deep in the Rift valley
Lays the vast Baringo County
Tourist destination in this country
But with so much that’s amiss
Ranging from matters insecurity
Cattle rustling in the community
Possession of arms and enmity
Education my concern our scrutiny
Kagir primary School in Baringo North
Is just an example among many
Its mud walled classes were washed away
And for months pupils studied under trees
Nachurur primary school in Tiaty
Stones as chairs trees as shelters
With the rains come the shelter
A school in the wild it is
Ptikii primary in Ngoron Tiaty
Has classes but no desks
Stones the only writing surfaces
For classes and exams as well
Under the trees all season
Sitting on stones writing on floors
Irresponsibility being the reason
Paralyzing the county’s education
Here is the irony
These very pupils
Compete with others countrywide
Who enjoy all the luxuries
A call to the county
A sincere plea to its leaders
Give those their right
That they may compete fairly
They are the tomorrow people
The future and hope of the county
Give them quality education
They need it to build the nation
