Kericho County Senator Aaron Cheruiyot has issued a seven-day ultimatum to bar owners operating near schools to shut down the businesses.
He warned that any operator who would not have heeded his warning will have himself to blame.
He said if the ultimatum lapses without action, he will mobilize members of the public to bring it down as bars were not only selling alcohol to pupils but also hard drugs including bhang.
Further, he has called on the national government to tighten the noose on all illicit and killer second-generation alcoholic drinks which had rendered many men zombies.
He said many youth have indulged in alcoholism and rendering them unproductive, thus slowing down development in the society.

The majority leader in the Senate made a jab at the legal system for releasing the vendor of the lethal mixture that killed ten people in Kirinyaga and blinded others by granting him little punishment.
He claimed that these kinds of acts necessitate the judicial changes that the president has been promoting.
