Education Ministry: 78 Arrested in Sweeping Exam Fraud Operation

The government has confirmed that at least 78 individuals have been arrested in connection with the 2025 KCSE Examinations.

The arrests were confirmed by Education Cabinet Secretary Julius Ogamba who linked the apprehension to the exposure of examination content on social media platforms while tests were still in progress, as well as other exam fraud practices.

The CS also said that further suspects are being pursued and will face prosecution as part of the Ministry’s efforts to combat exam malpractice.

“We have identified a few cases of individuals abusing social media platforms to expose the content of examinations in session. Our security agencies have been swift, and so far, we have arrested 78 individuals”, Ogamba stated.
