Magoha on Exam Cheating 

Last week during the commissioning of Competency Based Curriculum classrooms at Star of the Sea Girls’ Secondary School,Mombasa Education CS George Magoha disclosed that Telegram application was being used in examination irregularities.

“It is regrettable to say that the examination cartels are very active on something called Telegram. We are actually watching closely,” he said.

Magoha said they usually encounter cheating problems during the second paper of every subject.

“I want to warn those few centre managers who will be tempted to open the papers and share it on Telegram that we are waiting for you. If you don’t love your career and your life, then attempt it,” he said.

The KCPE exams ended on Wednesday and education CS George Magoha assured Kenyans that no exam was leaked.

He said any paper alleged to be an original was fake. He warned that those who were arrested for trying to take pictures of the exam papers will be dealt with according to the law.

KCSE exams are scheduled to start on Monday, March 14.
