The Kenya National Examinations Council (KNEC) is grappling with the mysterious disappearance of an official title deed for one of its prime land parcels, raising eyebrows over internal management at the country’s leading exam body.
In a public notice issued on July 1, 2025, KNEC disclosed that it had misplaced the title deed to land parcel number 209/6900. The land, located in Nairobi’s South C area, hosts key facilities for the Council.
The Council has made an urgent appeal to members of the public, requesting that anyone who may come across the title deed promptly return it to KNEC Headquarters in South C, report it to the nearest police station, or forward it through their post office address, P.O Box 73598 – 00200 Nairobi.

The development has triggered public concern, with education stakeholders calling for an internal audit and accountability over record-keeping lapses at the institution. The loss of such a critical document raises questions about asset protection and governance within the Council.
KNEC has however, moved to reassure the public that efforts are underway to trace the missing deed and to safeguard other vital institutional documents.
