    Learning was paralysed on Tuesday morning at Nairobi River primary school in BuruBuru estate, after the body of a 10-year-old standard four pupil was found floating in the school swimming pool. Angry parents could not understand why lessons were going on even with the body still in the pool. The lifeless body was discovered by the parents who went to the school after the boy failed to get home on Monday evening.
