Yes, the National Examinations KCSE has been leaked
since the day it started, that’s no longer a secret anymore. Students have been
dreaming and picturing the success they will finally celebrate and enjoy when
the resulted will be released early next year.
The big question however being asked in every part
of the country is; who is responsible for the leakage? Who will carry the
blame? This has however made the
examination and education bodies to distant themselves denying the existence of
such a malpractice. The education minister
Prof; Jacob Kaimenyi has come out chest forward with a word of total denial on
the same. The examination council CEO has also denied any existence of exams
leakage giving it a clean bill of health. All the blame has now been shifted the
mobile phone technology and watsapp application which is the center of exams
leakage. The watsapp application is widely used by the youths and some older
people with the age of my grandfather who has refused to accept old age and
that technology passed them a long time ago.
To bring the point home, I tend to equate teachers
to a pregnant mother who is almost giving birth, the candidates as the unborn
child and the government being a ruthless husband. The government (husband) has
recently been seen mistreating the teachers (wife) by exposing them to strikes
and again denying them their salaries at a time where they were almost giving
birth to healthy babies (students). The mistreatment will either lead to a
serious miscarriage if the exams will be cancelled and rescheduled, and if that
doesn’t happen then it will lead to a premature birth where the students are
going to come out ‘successful’ exam thieves who will eventually land on a
premature entry to the university who will in turn come out as non resourceful
and incompetent fellas.
To the parents, I know such sends cold jitters in
your bodies and mind confusing as to why this happens at such a time when you
are waiting to see the results of all the labor and finances invested in your
children. At least a word of comfort is that you have done your part and the
rest remains the responsibility of the concerned parties, students and finally
for believers, that God intervenes in such a situation.
