Monday, January 8, 2024 - President William Ruto has instructed Education Cabinet Secretary, Ezekiel Machogu, to form a team that will investigae the 2023 Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE) examination.
This was after he was briefed by Machogu that 3,000 students
who registered for the 2023 KCSE did not sit for the exams.
President Ruto sought to know why the candidates failed to
sit for the national examinations.
The timeframe when the investigating committee will present
its findings to the President was, however, not indicated.
Additionally, the President called on the Ministry of
Education to crack down on students and teachers taking part in exam cheating.
The briefing was done at the Eldoret State Lodge, Uasin Gishu
County, moments before the release of the KCSE results.
Kenya National Examination Council (KNEC) CEO, David Njengere,
remarked that measures had been put in place to prevent the leaking of the 2023
KCSE exams before the tests were administered.
