Prof Magoha, while speaking at Kenya High School, said that 90 mobile phones were also nabbed from busted examiners.
“The phones were to aid in cheating,” Prof Magoha said.
The education CS was accompanied by Principal Secretary Belio Kipsang, Kenya National examinations Council (Knec) acting Chief Executive Officer Mercy Karogo and Teachers Service Commission (TSC) CEO Nancy Macharia.
Nairobi, Kisii, Migori, Homa Bay, Wajir, and Garissa recorded highest cases of the counties that recorded cases of examination irregularities. This is despite the Ministry having flagged over 300 schools and made sure were put under watch over allegations of planned cheating.
