Identical twins Jason and Jesse Kamwaro have become a source of immense pride for their family and an inspiration to their peers.
The duo, students at Pioneer School, have etched their names in educational history by achieving stellar grades in the recently announced Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE) results.
Both Jason and Jesse earned impressive grade A’s, standing out among a group of 263 candidates. Jason scored 84 points, while Jesse followed closely with 82 points. Despite their shared genetic makeup, what truly binds them is their mutual aspiration to study computer science at Strathmore University.
What sets their success apart is the remarkable consistency they’ve demonstrated throughout their academic journey.
This isn’t the first instance where the twins have mirrored each other’s achievements. During their Kenya Certificate of Primary Education (KCPE) exams, Jason and Jesse scored 407 and 409 marks respectively, paving the way for their shared high school journey at Pioneer School.
Interestingly, despite being placed in different classes, the twins opted for identical subject combinations and maintained a strikingly similar academic trajectory.
In an exclusive interview, Jesse shared, “I scored 82 points, and my brother got 84 points. We both want to pursue the same course at Strathmore University.” Jason echoed these sentiments, revealing their shared ambition to become software engineers in prestigious tech companies such as Netflix and Google.
Their parents, led by their mother Esther Wangechi, along with the wider family, are elated by the twins’ accomplishments. Esther expressed that their similar grades were no surprise, attributing the success to their unwavering consistency and discipline. She said, “We pray that they continue this way into their future.”
Pioneer School’s deputy principal, Daniel Mwaura, also commended the twins and their peers, highlighting the school’s success in producing over 200 candidates who attained university entry grades.
To celebrate these achievements, the school’s director, Peter Munga, facilitated a motivation program where awards of up to Sh100,000 were presented to each of the four students who achieved grade A.
