Nairobi, Kenya: Education Cabinet Secretary Jacob Kaimenyi has said there are no plans to administer special examinations for students in the North Eastern region, where schools have been closed as a result of terror attacks.

Addressing senators at Parliament buildings, Prof Kaimenyi said while the rest of the country was already doing their examinations, especially the Form Four projects in Agriculture and Woodwork, the candidates in the region had already been left behind, and was unlikely to catch up in the current year.
