Education CS Migos Ogamba says teachers found facilitating cheating to be ‘impeached’

Teachers collaborating in exam cheating would lose their jobs and get locked out of public employment.

CS Education Migos Ogamba says the government would not stand at anything to secure the integrity of the exams.

Already, it has outlawed the use of mobile phones in all the examination centers across the country

Migos said the ministry would provide one satellite phone for use by the supervisor.

He was speaking at Siala Technical College in Rongo Migori County on Tuesday during a tree planting exercise.

The government, he said, has enhanced additional penalties for exam cheats including teachers and principals facilitating the vice.

Going forward, he warned, those found culpable would be locked out of public service jobs for good.

“We have drafted new penalties which are akin to impeachment…. This is just a warning… Just be sure that you will never get a job anywhere in the public once the courts find you guilty,” Migos said.
