Whakarāpopototia te tuhinga:  (CNN) I tipu ake ia i Kenya i raro i te mana koroni, i te wā kāore ngā wāhine i whiwhi mātauranga. Inaianei kei te 90 ona tau, kei te whakarerekē a Priscilla Sitienei i tērā, e haere ana ki te kura tuatahi -- e whakaawe ana i tētahi whakatupuranga. I tīmata ia e rima tau ki muri hei kaitiaki tamariki i tētahi kura noho tata ki Eldoret. Kei te whā o ngā tau ia i tēnei rā. "He mokopuna aku, he mokopuna hoki aku i karo i te kura", e kii ana ia ma te waea mai i Ndalat. "I riri mai ahau ki taua mea. I whakatau ahau me whakaatu e au ki a ratou he mea nui te mātauranga". I nga wa o te koroni, kaore etahi o nga hohipera o Kenya i pupuri i nga tuhinga whanau. Kaore i te tino marama te pakeke o Sitienei, engari e kii ana ia i whanau ia i te 1923, i te wa i pa ai te matekai ki tona kainga. I a ia e tipu ana, i kii nga whanaunga ki a ia i ora noa ia i taua matekai i a ia e tamariki ana, i hoatu ki a ia he tatauranga mo tana tau whanau. Mena ka whakapumautia e Guinness World Records, ko ia te akonga tawhito rawa atu i te kura tuatahi. Ko te honore whakamutunga o te Guinness World Records i riro ki tetahi atu Kenyan, Kimani Maruge, i te tau 2004 i tapaina ko te tangata tawhito rawa ki te timata i te kura tuatahi. E rima tau i muri mai, ka mate ia i te 90 o ona tau. Ahakoa i mahi a Sitienei hei kaiwhakawhanau tuku iho mo nga tau tekau, e kii ana ia he nui tonu nga mea hei ako. "Ko taku kaupapa tino pai ko te pāngarau", e ai ki te nonagenarian. "I te mea kei te kura ahau inaianei, e mohio ana ahau ki te horopeta tika hei hoatu ki nga wahine e awhina ana ahau ki te tuku tamariki". I marena a Sitienei i te wa o tana tamarikitanga, a, i arotahi ki te whakatipu i ana tamariki 10. "E kore ahau e taea te haere ki te kura ahakoa e hiahia ana ahau", ka mea ia. "I tōku wā, ko te whakaako i tētahi wahine he whakapaunga wā, he whakapaunga moni". Ka whakamārama māfana ia i tōna aroha ki te kura me ōna hoa ākonga, ko ētahi i āwhina ia ki te kawe mai ki tēnei ao. "E karanga ana ratou ki ahau 'Gogo,'" ka mea ia, e whakamahi ana i te kupu mō te kuia i roto i tana iwi Kalenjin o te rohe. "E tākaro ana mātou i roto i ngā tūru i te wā o te okiokinga, e kōrero ana mātou. He pai ki ahau te kura". He ruma motuhake a Sitienei kei roto i tētahi kokonga, kei reira ia e tuku whakaaro nui ai ki ana kaiako. Kei waho o tōna tatau he tohu e kī ana "Kāore he tau o te mātauranga". Ko David Kinyanjui, te tumuaki o Leaders Vision Preparatory...
E ai ki a Priscilla Sitienei i hoki ia ki te kura hei whakaaweawe i ana mokopuna. "E tohutohu ana ia i ā mātau kotiro, e tohutohu ana ia i ā mātau tama", te kī a tōna tumuaki.
