A Kenya National Examinations Council (KNEC) supervisor is recovering from head wounds and a fractured hand after he says he was abducted and assaulted in Kinango Sub-county on Wednesday evening, November 11.
Julius Ndurya was supervising the 2026 Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE) examinations at Vigurungani Secondary School. He said he had been offered Sh50,000 on Monday, November 9, to overlook examination irregularities at the centre and had turned down the offer.
Ndurya also said he confiscated unauthorised papers that a teacher allegedly brought into the examination room. He said he locked the papers away as evidence, but they later went missing.
Supervisor fears returning to exam centre
Ndurya said he was seized in the Bang’a area and taken to Vigurungani, where his attackers questioned why he had stopped candidates from copying and threatened to kill him. KBC reported that Form Four candidates were suspected of involvement.
Coast Times Digital reported that boda boda riders found Ndurya and took him to Kinango Hospital, where he spent two days before being discharged.
The incident was reported to Kinango police. Ndurya told KBC he feared for his safety and would not return to the school to continue supervising the examinations.
