"content": "This House is there to oversee all the systems of the Government. The response given by the CEO, the Kenya National Examinations Council, was agonising. The CEO mentioned that since the examination is a multiple choice, it is possible for pupils to attain the same marks in a given subject. This is a joke to the Kenyan intellectuals. It does not require rocket science to know that this cannot happen. That is why, for record, I say that the CEO, KNEC, should be held accountable. A credible examination is a product of a good management process. This year, the Departmental Committee on Education and Research went around the country collecting views from stakeholders about the management of examinations. There were numerous complaints about the way the exams are marked and processed and the way results are released. The big question is why was the rush? The CEO and the entire management should be held accountable if they cannot compute results and do marking properly or enumerate the markers well. We support this Motion. If a doctor who messes up with a patient is held accountable, why can the CEO who has messed with the lives of kids not be held accountable? That is my submission."
