President Uhuru Kenyatta has pardoned candidates who committed various irregularities during the 2020 Kenya Certificate of Primary Education (KCPE) exam.

This is after Education Cabinet Secretary George Magoha announced that seven candidates were found in possession of pre-prepared notes in examination rooms last month.

Further, five cases of impersonation were detected.

However rather than cancel the results of the candidates as has been the norm, Prof Magoha said that the President directed that all results for the 1,179,192 candidates who sat the examination are released.

“The President pronounced himself that we shall release the results of all the candidates but those staffers who allowed this to happen shall be severely punished. As you can see, the President is extremely magnanimous with the children and ours is to obey his directive,” said Magoha.

These are the kinds of decisions that make me think Uhuru amefyatuka. So exam cheats will be allowed to benefit from their theft or what? just like the Kemsa etc thieves are allowed to benefit from looted funds?

This is weird......................

Your prince is naked! This kind of nonsense is allover the place. Giving free passes to friends and cronies and playing Russian roulette with citizens lives.

Yeye hu-disappoint sana saa zingine. As his supporter, I don't shy from saying this or criticising the gavament. Na nyinyi watu wa yule mganga wa msituni?

Why are we obsessed with exams? Ati soma kwa nguvu upite mtihani. Why is releasing exams a national thing?

If a child has failed all their exams leading up to KCPE which might determine what the rest of their life looks like then the best thing that child can do for themselves is cheat. Cheating is a smarter way of passing exams.
 
Those who were caught hawakumaliza mtihani. So ata wakirelease bado hawatafaidika. This directive gives them a chance ya kurudia. Kids are stupid, they shouldn't suffer for life for something like this.

How much criminal liability does a 14 year old have? When they commit a crime do they get punished as adults?

There should be punishment lakini let's understand that we are dealing with kids. They do stupid things.
