While Comparing Machogu to former CS Matiang’i, Legislator Kitur stated that the former Education Minister Fred Matiang’i did not impose unnecessary stress on parents when he released results.
The member of parliament further voiced that the results are withheld without justification.
Kitur stated,”There was no hurry for the Minister of Education to release the results; you’re not competing with Matiang’i. What was the hurry to release the results if they had issues? Why didn’t you resolve those issues because nobody was going to university or college in January? Parents are going through so much trauma when you withhold results for no reason.”
Notably, The legislator called for resignation of Kenya national examination council officials, citing their incompetence.
He stated,”You release results on one page, and in that one page, it’s only 11 plus. I demand that the KNEC CEO and Chairman, kama mmeshindwa na kazi, just damn resign.”
