“I want to assure the candidates and parents that no one will be punished unfairly. We have launched investigations and a report will be out before end of January 2019,” Amina said.

CEO Nancy Macharia said other 57 cases are under investigation.

“We will firmly deal with any irregularities… 62 cases of non-conformity were registered by KNEC,” she said.
