Knut Teso branch deputy secretary Olung’a Ekwenye exonerated teachers over the failure by schools in the county to register As for the last three years.

“Teachers are putting their best but laxity among students is the cause of this failure to realise quality grades,” he said. “Education stakeholders need to sit down and ascertain why quality grades have become elusive since 2016.”

Busia Governor Sospeter Ojaamong introduced laptops for all students who scored As in 2014 KCSE.

No award has been given since 2016 because no student has scored a straight A.
