Using that result slip with a C- (Minus), he went ahead and registered in a college for a certificate course which required a C- (Minus). He undertook a two year certificate course. The mother took a loan and educated the boy only finally to be told that he could not sit for his examinations because he had a D- (Minus), by the same KNEC which was supposed to examine him. Could the Assistant Minister use his discretion to allow this young man, whose mother has taken a loan to educate him for two good years, to sit for that certificate examination or compensate him? The boy had a result slip from KNEC."}
