Kenya’s education boss had to squash viral rumors about leaked exam scores online. Julius Ogamba rejected claims that government officials secretly dropped the KCSE grades already. Internet trolls circulated fake screenshots showing Kapsabet Boys High School taking top honors. Official policies ban ranking institutions anyway. That viral image showing him on television announcing outcomes was totally fabricated.
Real scores drop during the second week of January. Ogamba confirmed this schedule at a cultural festival in Nyamira County last month. People got confused because primary school tests usually finish in December. That specific exam did not happen due to curriculum changes.
Nearly one million candidates sat for these tests across the nation starting in October. Examiners finished grading papers at 35 different centers before mid-December. The examination council insists parents should chill until the ministry speaks officially.
