The Ministry of Education, Science and Technology has done well in trying to pay for the pupils’ examination fees but most of the pupils cannot make it for that examination because their parents cannot sustain paying their school fees. The school fees is too high. If we pay examination fees and pupils do not sit for that examination, it will not make sense. So, I ... view
