The annual student council election at Tenri Primary School in Embu has taken the national spotlight, going viral on social media platforms like TikTok and YouTube. Candidates like Allan (famed for his "Halo Halloo!" catchphrase), Nevina, and Sally launched energetic campaigns mimicking Kenyan national politics.
Complete with dramatic manifestos, demands for lower primary deputy roles, and lighthearted allegations of "bribing voters" with sweets and snacks, the election provided students with a fun, realistic hands-on lesson in democratic representation and student governance.
