On Tuesday, several girls across the country sat for their exams in hospital after giving birth a few hours to the exam. One of the candidates even named her child after Education Cabinet Secretary Amina Mohammed.

Some candidates also missed their exams after dying under mysterious circumstances, while two girls in Kilifi County decided that they would get married on the exam day. I wonder why someone would work so hard for eight years, then decide to ditch all that at the crucial moment.
