"content": "Is the Kenya National Examinations Council taking advantage of poor Kenyans? How are results disseminated? Why not upload the results on the KNEC portal for access by all Kenyans across the country? Charging Ksh25 per SMS is absurd. I have never seen that before. It is the highest amount in Kenya's history. Has KNEC become a betting company? That amount is close to what the youth use to bet. It is absurd. Charging 1.4 million Kenyans Ksh25 to send close to four SMSs brings the total amount to Ksh140 million. Is KNEC a money- minting institution? I challenge the Ministry of Education and the Departmental Committee on Education and Research to oversee that area. The amount of money that KNEC is getting really puzzles me. I know the money is shared between Safaricom, which is the service provider, and KNEC. That is the main challenge that this honourable House should investigate.
