Four Members of Parliament are among 577,253 candidates sitting for 2016 KCSE examinations in the North Rift region.
The Director of Acacia Adult Education School Benjamin Cheboi said on Monday that the MPs registered under adult education to sit for the exams.
“We registered a total of 25 candidates under the adult education programme and we also have leaders, including sitting MPs, who are taking the KCSE exams.”
Two of the lawmakers are from Baringo county, one from Uasin Gishu and another from Bungoma County, according to the Star.
They are sitting for the exams in schools within Uasin Gishu and Baringo.
Cheboi declined to reveal their identities or whether they were sitting for KCSE for the first time or re-sitting the national exam.
He said the legislators requested to sit for the exams privately.
“The private centres are away from other secondary schools, where other KCSE candidates are taking exams,” he told the Star.
