On 26th November 2018, Ukwala Court locked up 8 Ambira High School boys who were accused of insulting CS for Education Amina Mohammed and Interior CS Fred Matiangi
The court gave the prosecution 7 days to wrap up probe.
The 8 boys were recorded on tape trading insults to the two CS after they had finished their KCSE results.
However, Kenyans on tweeted wondered why the government did not move with the same speed to arrest those accused of graft corruption or those who even stole elections.
Ambira High school students have said the names the used 'Matiangi' is a nickname they call their school captain and 'Amina' is their Kiswahili teacher.

The Ambira High School students' bizarre rants and insults against senior public officials is worse than anything the Indian guru, Mahatma Gandhi might have imagined in one of his 7 social sins, "Education without character". Something is terribly wrong!

The Speed used to arrest and prosecute boys from Ambira High School should be used on Corruption cartels,its a shame to see more strength and energy right from the president on such a case. Uhuru divert the strength and energy towards corruption or else no sense in our leadership

Ambira High School Students in the Video should just say It's "Photoshop" as most of the Corrupt Government officials always say. But before that, What were the students doing with a Mobile phone in school? Aren't they illegal anymore? 🤔
