A Form Two student was suspended by Nyahururu Girls National School adminstration after refusing to sit for exams on Saturday.
The Seventh Day Adventist student whose name is concealed since she's a minor, defiantly wrote to the adminstration explaining what precipitated to her 'misconduct'.
In the letter exclusively seen by the writer, the student insisted that her rights to worship can never be compromised at all times.
“Despite the consequences, I will never ever study or do exams on God’s own stationed Sabbath. I know that everything that happens God is always aware of it.
"I need not be afraid of the outcome.“As God delivered Daniel from the den of lions, he will also deliver me. I know God is my Lord and King of kings,” reads part of the letter.
Nyabururu Girls is a Catholic school and students are strictly advised to adhere to the institution's rules and regulations.
Even in the letter, the teenager admits of violating school regulations and principal Joyce Orioki defended her moves insisting that the minor had refused to change mentality despite frequent counsels.
"This is not a disciplinary case but a matter that requires guidance from us and the parents. We have done our part. We are ready to assist where possible,” said the principal.
Last year, a court ruled that SDA students should be allowed to rest on Saturdays, a move that could plunge the institution into serious jeopardy.
The Ministry of Education had banned weekend tution further throwing the adminstration into limbo should the matter reach authorities.
