A Principal Jumps Over School Fence After Caught Leaking A KCSE Paper To Candidates
The current Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE) examinations have been tainted by a scandal involving educators from Gekonge High School in Kisii County. Morris Oyugi, the school’s head, and three other instructors are in custody, facing charges of alleged misconduct that has compromised the integrity of the exams.
The Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) uncovered a clandestine operation led by this group, involving the unauthorized duplication of exam materials. What sets this scandal apart is the audacious manner in which the educators replaced trusted school treasurers and secretaries during the exams, allowing them to remain undetected on school premises.
These educators, entrusted with students’ education and moral guidance, shockingly received exam materials from the distribution center, duplicated them at a nearby primary school, and distributed these illicit copies to unsuspecting students in the examination room.

Christine Kemunto, one of the implicated educators, went to great lengths, posing as a secretary but was revealed to be a Christian Religious Education (CRE) instructor through a thorough police investigation.
The betrayal of trust is evident as educators, meant to uphold educational principles, became the architects of deceit. In a surprising turn of events, mathematics teacher Eric Moseti managed to escape justice by scaling a fence and fleeing after being exposed, adding a cinematic flair to the already sensational story.
This daring escape raises questions about the credibility and integrity of the ongoing KCSE exams. As these revelations unfold, the education system grapples with the urgent need for increased vigilance and security measures.
The incident serves as a stark reminder of the importance of maintaining trust and authenticity in the educational assessment process. The repercussions of this scandal will undoubtedly resonate through the corridors of academia, prompting a reevaluation of systems to prevent such egregious breaches in the future.
