Former Kasarani Member of Parliament Mercy Wanjiku Gakuya is celebrating a moment of immense pride after her daughter, Sheillah Gakuya, posted outstanding results in the recently released KCSE examinations.
Sheillah emerged among the top performers nationwide after attaining a mean grade of A, placing her in an elite group of just 1,932 candidates out of over 993,000 students who sat for the exams.
The proud mother shared the good news on her Facebook page, where she posted a screenshot of her daughter’s official result slip. The results revealed exceptional performance across most subjects.
Sheillah scored straight As in Mathematics, Biology, Chemistry, Physics, and Geography, while posting A-minus grades in English, Kiswahili, and Computer Studies—an achievement that drew admiration from many Kenyans online.
Accompanying the post, Gakuya expressed gratitude and joy, praising God and congratulating her daughter for the remarkable milestone. Her post quickly attracted warm congratulatory messages from friends, supporters, and followers who joined her in celebrating the academic success.
Mercy Gakuya, who served as Kasarani MP between 2017 and 2022, has often spoken about the importance of education, and her daughter’s performance has been widely viewed as a testament to discipline, hard work, and determination.
Sheillah’s achievement has since become a source of inspiration to many students and parents across the country as Kenyans continue to reflect on the 2024 KCSE outcomes.
