RIP: Pathologist Shares Condition of Major Organs of Boy Who Died at Moi School

Tension and grief still surround the death of Moses Nyang’au, a pupil at Moi Comprehensive School in Nakuru, after a postmortem report revealed what may have caused his sudden collapse.

Dr Nguuni from Nakuru County Teaching and Referral Hospital said the examination showed no signs of serious physical injury.

He stated that besides a small injury on the boy’s forehead, there was no major trauma on the body.

The chest, head, thighs, and other visible parts showed no injuries.

The pathologist explained that the internal examination indicated circulatory failure.

He noted that the body first showed signs of hypoxia, which means low oxygen supply, but doctors could not immediately find the exact cause of the circulatory collapse.

Samples from the blood, liver and kidneys were taken for further analysis to help determine what may have led to the condition.

Dr Nguuni said that poor blood circulation can be caused by several factors, such as sudden shock, abnormal heart rhythm, or bleeding. He also noted that the stomach looked hemorrhagic.

The management of Moi Comprehensive School welcomed the report, stating it does not directly implicate the institution in the boy’s death.

The incident sparked protests from family members and the public demanding answers. Online reactions remain divided.

Some Kenyans questioned school safety and the duty of care owed to students, while others urged patience as investigations continue.

A section of the public called for classmates to be interviewed to provide more clarity on what happened before the boy collapsed.

As the family mourns, many await the final laboratory results, hoping they will provide clearer answers about the tragic loss.
