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.
