He noted that it was not possible for more than 400,000 students to get below the D+ mean grade.

He further observed that those students will have nowhere to go to since there is scarcity of youth polytechnics and colleges that can take all those students.

“Do not condemn our kids into life of desperation…to the extend that some are committing suicide for simply failing in their exams,”Sang said.

On Thursday, KNUT Secretary General Wilson Sossion  wrote to the Kenya National Examination Council (KNEC) demanding a recall of the results for moderating and auditing.

“The results are not credible at all, they are irregular and most disastrous exam in the Kenya history, and does not meet the international standards of measurement and evaluation,” read the letter in part.
