Addressing a meeting attended by primary and secondary school heads at Kiambu boy’s high school last Thursday, Njuguna reassured both candidates and their parents that adequate preparations were in place and there was no cause to worry. He said the exercise had been accorded a multi-agency approach to ensure success and eliminate any form of cheating. “This examination touches on the lives of our children and we will not spare anyone assigned responsibility to joke around with it,” said Njuguna.

The Deputy County Commissioner appealed to those assigned duties to oversee exams to arrive at their respective examination centres on time and work as a team so as to deliver credible results. He said head teachers would be expected at the container where the examination papers have been stored between 5a.m and 5.45a.m to facilitate opening of the same at exactly 6a.m. He reiterated that lateness would not be entertained, while calling for prudent time management so as not to interfere with the exercise.
