90-Year-Old Grandma Begins Primary School In Kenya (Photos) by Realsman405(m): 9:01pm On Jan 25, 2018 |
90-year-old grandma, Priscilla Sitienei, who hails from Eldoret, Uasin Gishu county, has not given up on education, as she has enrolled in a primary school in Kenya. Priscilla chose to attend school simply because she had an eagerness to read the Bible and learn how to send an SMS on her phone, Tuko.co.ke states. The relentless grandmother is enrolled at Vision preparatory and she is schoolmate with seven of her grandchildren. Priscilla affectionately referred to as Gogo, which is the grandmother in Kalenjin, dedicated much of her life to raising her children and was a midwife for 65 years. She grew up under colonial rule and did not get the opportunity to go to school, so she took to education at her old age in a bid to empower herself. Priscilla never shies away from learning and shares classes with children young enough to be her great-grandchildren. Her attitude is admirable and proves to many in our society that it’s never too late to learn and accomplish your dreams, a teacher in her school said. http://punchng.com/photos-90-year-old-grandma-begins-primary-school/?utm_source=&utm_medium=twitter 15 Likes 2 Shares

This is so wrong! This old woman is doing this to draw all attention to herself. Those students will stare at her or try to help her more often, and in turn, they'll lose focus in class. Leave that school old bitch so that the little students can focus on themselves and not on you. 6 Likes 1 Share |

Even at old age, forces won't let someone rest in peace. She needs the children by her side but certainly not the books |

Aww reminds me of my sweet grandmother. Being a victim of the toxic misogynistic Nigerian culture was denied an education while her brothers were sent to school. So at 75, she bought learning materials and entrusted 10 year old me to teach her how to read. It's a shame she died before she could learn properly but her determination has always been my inspiration 18 Likes |
