AfricaPress-Kenya:<\/strong> All the candidates except for one at a Nyamira examination centre are being investigated by the authorities over alleged exam leakage.<\/p>\n

The private centre at Nyamira Secondary School had eight candidates who had been registered to sit the Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE) examination.<\/p>\n

The Ministry of Education and Kenya National Examination Council (KNEC) officials called in police to establish the\u00a0authenticity of the allegations.<\/p>\n

A student is said to have received the chemistry theory questions on WhatsApp after which he\/she crafted the answers and shared with the rest of the KCSE candidates before the exam started at 7.27 am.<\/p>\n

The police also arrested the principal of Kiabiraa Secondary School, the exam supervisor, some of the invigilators and Chemistry teachers at the same school.<\/p>\n

Nyamira County Commissioner Amos Mariba warned that anyone planning to cheat would face severe consequences.<\/p>\n

Similarly, two KCSE candidates and a university student were arrested in Busia county after a school head boy unearthed a cheating ring in his school.<\/p>\n

The senior student is said to have been making rounds when he caught the students, aged 17 and 20, using their smartphones.<\/p>\n

According to authorities, the school management was alerted after which it was revealed that the phones contained exam material.<\/p>\n

Education Cabinet Secretary George\u00a0Magoha had warned candidates, university students\u00a0and teachers planning to steal in the KCSE examinations that they would be arrested and imprisoned.<\/p>\n

“This is my last warning, if you intend to be bold enough to do this, you will be arrested and thrown into prison,” he asserted.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
