Origin of Education in Northern Kenya according this interesting book: Shariff Shibly and the Development of Education in Northern Kenya Isiolo, 1946 - The First Primary School in the NFD Upon his arrival in Isiolo, Shariff Shibly established a strong relationship with the local population, particularly the Somali community. The Somali people traditionally held the Asharaf community, into which Shibly was born, in high regard. His status as a deeply learned Islamic scholar alleviated fears of an unwelcome Christian influence. The Government African School (GAS) in Isiolo officially opened on February 6, 1946. One hundred Somali children, as well as some Arab and Indian children, applied for the 50 available spots. Several prominent individuals supported Shibly in establishing the school. These individuals, representing various communities in Isiolo, are listed. 1. Haji Abdalla Farah 2. Chief Athar Dualle 3. Sheikh Mahamed Farah Musa 4.Sha'ur 5. Sheikh Omar Ismail. 6. Mr. Said Gulled 7. Sgt. Guleid Abdille (Hassan Guleid's father) 8. Mr. Mahamed Jama Goroof 9. Mr. Ahmed Warsame 10. Mr. Salah Shire 11. Mr. Abdullahi Adan 12. Mr. Mohamed Habash 13. Mr. Abdi Farah Wais 14. Mr. Ali Ahmed Muslih 15. Mr. Abdulkarim Bazambur The Isiolo school initially operated in two temporary grass-thatched rooms outside the District Commissioner's office. However, these rooms were deemed old and unsafe, necessitating evacuation. The children were then relocated to a warehouse rented from Mr. Fakir Mohamed Lallkhan, which was not a suitable learning environment. By 1954, with the number of pupils reaching 100, the school moved again to the new Methodist prayer house. This move outraged the British Provincial Education Officer, who considered it sacrilege for a Muslim school to be housed in a Christian church and demanded an immediate alternative. The District Commissioner managed to salvage some materials to create three temporary shelters where the pupils could continue their studies. @fhersy @samanfatma
