Bahati reveals Morgan is joining national school after posting exemplary KJSEA results
By Steve Ireri, January 16, 2026Singer Kelvin Bahati has revealed that his son, Morgan, who recently sat for his Kenya Junior School Education Assessment (KJSEA), is joining a prestigious national school.
In a post on his Instagram page on Friday, January 16, 2026, Bahati asked his fans to guess which national school Morgan would be attending as he prepared to return to school.
“It’s time to shave; it’s Morgan Bahati’s time to go back to school. Guess which national school he is joining,” Bahati wrote.
Morgan’s take
In the same video, Morgan expressed excitement about transitioning to high school, saying he was putting everything in place to report back.
At the same time, he lamented the fact that Kenyan schools often require students to shave their heads, noting that there is no evidence anywhere that shaving guarantees students will be smarter.
“What can I say? Am I happy or am I not happy? I don’t understand. I am going to a national school, as you all know, and there, you know, they don’t allow students to keep this kind of hair. But I wonder why Africans always have issues with hair and schooling,” he said.
Stellar results
The announcement comes just days after the singer’s wife, Diana Marua, celebrated Morgan’s outstanding academic achievement by gifting him a brand-new iPhone 17 Pro Max.
The celebratory moment came after Morgan excelled in his KJSEA exams, exceeding expectations in all subjects with a remarkable score of 68 out of 72 points.
In a video shared on her TikTok page on Tuesday, December 23, 2025, Marua documented the heartwarming scene as she handed Morgan his KJSEA results.
“So, Morgan, are you ready? Come for your results. Sit here. Take your results. This is what you brought home,” she said, visibly excited.
As Morgan processed the news, he exclaimed, “Wait, wait, wait… I have exceeded expectations!”
His siblings cheered him on before embracing him in a group hug, leaving the young student beaming with pride and joy.
Marua didn’t stop at praising her son. She surprised him with a luxurious reward for his hard work.
“I have a gift for Morgan. Are you ready? Open your eyes,” she told him, revealing the iPhone 17 Pro Max.
Overwhelmed with emotion, Morgan responded with excitement, while Marua reminded him of the values she hopes he carries forward.
“Never stop until you get something finished. Don’t stop because you’re tired. Just stop when it’s done,” she advised, sharing a motherly lesson alongside the celebratory gift.
The phone not only marked Morgan’s academic success but also served as an early birthday present, as the teenager turned 16 on the same day.
“HELP ME CONGRATULATE MY SON, MORGAN 🥳🥳🥳. We are so proud of you, Morgan, for EXCEEDING EXPECTATIONS in all subjects. He wanted a phone, and he deserves the best! I got him an iPhone 17 Pro Max, which has also come as an early birthday gift. My boy turns 16 today, and being his mum is my greatest blessing! HAPPY BIRTHDAY MORGAN 🎉🎉🎉,” Diana wrote following the heartwarming surprise.
