Hiyo thread ya High School rivalries ni funny. Imenikumbusha rivalry kati ya St. Joseph's Kitale and St. Antony's Kitale. We hated each other than in no particular day did we share a closing or opening day juu mabois walikuwa wanaonana vita Kitale town.
Tulikuwa tunafightia the girls school; St. Joseph's Girls, St. Monicas, and St. Brigid's Kiminini as well as outperforming each other kwa education and other discipline. Our rivalry was so bad that our principal never referred to that school by its name.
St. Antony's was rumored to admit some form 4 students that had sat for KCSE the previous year ndio wacompete na sisi. For this, our principal used to call them, 'Kitale College of Repeaters.' He would say, 'ensure the Kitale Collage of repeaters does not outperform us this year
And the hate was instilled into us na waalimu, plus the principal, from the word go. I remember during orientation as a form one, the school captain alituambia 'and you should uphold high standards of cleanliness msikuwe mnanuka kaa St. Antony's Boys.' Penye Mulamwa alisomea.
