    "content": "This Bill is giving true meaning to Article 43(1)(f) of the Constitution which guarantees everybody the right to education. Many students go to secondary school and they spend their first 15 or 18 years in school. KNEC was given powers to administer examinations to students, but they condemn them by nullifying the results without any reason. KNEC was given power which it has misused. We said in this Bill that KNEC powers must be distributed now. They have misused and used them arbitrarily. They do not cater for the interest of the students and their future. We have said some of its powers must be given to a tribunal. We will not take away its powers. It still remains with its powers under Section 10(2)(e) of the Act which gives them the authority to nullify, withhold or cancel the results of any candidate who is involved in cheating. The Constitution provisions must be upheld. Section 35 of the Constitution gives the students a right to be heard and corrected."
