Six choppers on standby to distributes exams in North Eastern

The government has put on standby six choppers to help in ferrying the Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE) examinations in far flung and border areas of the North Eastern region.

Some of the areas that are far from the main distributions centres include Galmagala in Garissa, Diff and Harar in Wajir and Kotulo and Arabia in Mandera.

Each of the three counties of the region will have access to two choppers when the need arises.

This year, 22,244 students in the North eastern are sitting for the KCSE examination out of which 16,919 are from public schools and 5,325 from private schools.

North Eastern regional director for Education Adan Roble said that no challenges have been reported so far and that the expectation is that everything will run smoothly.

Garissa County Commissioner Mohamed Mwabudzo said that the government has made necessary security measures during the examination period.
