The Ministry of Education reports that national examinations are progressing smoothly, with the marking of the Kenya Junior School Education Assessment now fully underway. Education Cabinet Secretary Julius Ogamba stated that over 11,000 examiners are working at marking centers, with half of the machine-scored multiple-choice papers already processed. The ongoing Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education examination is also advancing with minimal malpractice.
Security agencies have arrested 78 suspects for allegedly exposing exam content online, and seven cases of impersonation have been detected. The Ministry has reinforced strict protocols, including armed escorts for exam materials and a ban on mobile phones in assessment centers. Ogamba warned that all offenders would be prosecuted according to the law. He commended officials for their professionalism and urged the public to remain vigilant by reporting any suspicious activities.
