A female Kenya National Examination Council (KNEC) official shocked the court on Tuesday after she gave a blow by blow account of how Kapseret member of parliament Oscar Sudi forged his academic documents.
Using the information given, that is the index number, the year of examination and the name of the candidate, KNEC checked the records for Highway secondary school and established that the quoted code which was 401006 did not belong to Highway secondary school but belonged to Parkland secondary school.
“A code for Highway secondary secondary school according to records of KNEC is 401005 and that is the KCSE examination for the year 2006. After establishing that, we also went through the records and established a candidate by the name Oscar kipchumba sudi did not appear in the year 2006 for either parkland secondary school or Highway secondary school.
“So having established this part, the Kenya National Examination Council requested the commission to submit a copy of the said certificate for further scrutiny and to enable KNEC make a conclusive report on the issue.
‘After this letter, the commission submitted a copy of the KCSE certificate and it had the name of sudi kipchumba oscar highway secondary school, index 401006/081 year 2006 KCSE.
Apparently, the KNEC official further disclosed that a detailed scrutiny established that Sudi did not register for KCSE at Highway secondary school under the mentioned Index for Parklands since the real code for Highway secondary during that year was 401005 .
Surprisingly, Sudi’s certificate read Highway High School instead of Highway Secondary school which was and still is the exact names.
“It was also confirmed as earlier on given in the other report that the name Sudi Kipchumba Oscar did not appear in the 2006 KCSE database for either Parkland Secondary School or Highway Secondary school.”
As a result, the KNEC officer concluded before the court that Oscar Sudi’s certificates were forged from false documents.
According to Chief magistrate Felix Kombo, the case was set to be heard on October 26th 2021 since it had dragged on for almost four years.
“I’m under pressure to conclude these cases which have been pending for over four years,” said the judge.
As a result, chief magistrate Felix Kombo ruled that the case will be determined for five days beginning from October 26th, October 27th, October 28th, November 16th, and November 17th 2021.
