On November 4, 2019, a KCSE examination supervisor at Olympic Secondary School in Kibra, Nairobi was arrested after she allegedly opened the wrong examination papers.

According to Kibra Deputy Commissioner Gideon Ombogi, the female teacher mistakenly handed out English Paper 2 instead of Paper 1 to students.

Fortunately, the exam did not leak, as the supervisor did not display the contents of the papers.

The exam official was taken to Kilimani Police Station for further questioning.

It is reported that the papers were recalled from the students after two streams had received the wrong papers.

The incident highlights the importance of careful planning and execution in administering exams.
