Prof Magoha said this while on a tour to oversee rehearsals of KCPE 2021 candidates  in Kimunyu primary school in Gatundu, Kiambu County today.

The CS cautioned the distractors that action will be taken against those who will interfere with the exam normal operations and they will regret the consequences of their actions.

"No Outsiders will be allowed to visit the school , unless for the center managers and invigilators. The students deserve a calm environment to write their exams  with no interruptions from visitors. The visitors can wait. Should we find you interfering with the exam process, you will face the full consequences and tough actions will be taken against that will be a lesson to others,” said Magoha. 

The KCPE exams will kick off on Monday 7th March, with more that 800,000 candidates expected to sit for the exams.

The Cabinet further warned those people selling fake exam papers that the law will catch up with them because they are misleading candidates who are well prepared for the exam.

“There have been several reports that fraudsters are taking advantage of this exam period to sell fake examination papers. I like to caution the students to stay away from them and that if found, the actors will be dealt with accordingly."

KCSE will kick off on 14th March with much anticipation as there was no national exams in 2021 because of interruptions by Corona virus.
