Kenya’s schools exam board has been dissolved over “irregularities” in last year’s secondary school exams, which saw 5,000 results cancelled.
It was reported that exam papers were shared on WhatsApp before exams. The chief executive and eight other KNEC officials have been ordered to make police statements. In October last year, it was reported that exam questions were being sold for 1,000 Kenyan shillings ($10; £7). But KNEC (Kenya National Examinations Council) head said in reaction that the questions were fake.
He urged students not to trust the questions being shared on WhatsApp and went ahead with the exams which he insisted were credible.
