After a food poisoning incident at the school in late March, Kakamega Senator Dr Boni Khalwale warned parents not to send their kids back.
Following the tragedy, which resulted in the deaths of three students and the hospitalization of numerous more, the school was shuttered on April 3.
The Senate Majority Whip said in a statement to newsrooms on Thursday that his visit to the school on Wednesday had not persuaded him that it is capable of averting a similar tragedy before its anticipated opening on May 2
"I am disheartened to report that the situation on the ground has not changed and I wish to advise parents of this great institution not to take their children back to school until the requisite changes are made, as initially agreed upon," said Khalwale.

The Kakamega senator claims that despite being ordered to remove these toxic preservative-laced grains (ideally burned) before the students' return, the food storage is still full of decaying and terrible food.
The school still provides water for student usage from a nearby river, according to Khalwale, who noted that the fundamental necessity is not cleaning to remove toxins and dangerous compounds.
He continued by saying that there are still people in place who are either directly or indirectly accountable for the appalling situation at the school.
According to Bonny Khalwale, the Ministry of Education and the Teachers Service Commission (TSC) are being held accountable for failing to take any action against the Principal, BOM, and other officers who are to blame for the current life-threatening situation at Mukumu Girls through simple negligence, willful greed, or incompetence.
He added that he wished to advise parents not to take their kids back to school on May 2 until and unless all the above three concerns have been addressed.
