Willis Raburu, a popular Citizen TV news anchor, has been entertaining audiences with his energetic and humorous on-screen presence. However, few people know about his high school days, which he recently opened up about in an interview with Churchill Show's MC Jessy.
According to Raburu, he attended Chemilil Sugar Academy, where he faced academic challenges, particularly in Mathematics. Despite his efforts, he managed to score a D+ in his KCSE exams.
‘I was in Chemilil Sugar academy. My hardest subject was Mathematics. No matter the efforts I put in my studies I managed to get a D+,' he said.
But that's not all - Raburu also revealed that he was suspended from school for being in a romantic relationship with a girl from his class. The school had prohibited any non-academic relationships involving students of the opposite gender, but Raburu's girlfriend was 'hard-headed' and refused to back down.
‘In our school, we were banned from having any non-academic relationship with the opposite gender. My girlfriend was hard-headed and did not want to lay low. The two had been warned and even blasted a couple of times. One day a teacher caught me and my girl sitting on each other. Thinking it was over, during our parade the following day we were asked to step forward and we were suspended,' Raburu said.
These revelations have left fans talking, and it's clear that Raburu's high school days were far from ordinary.
