Arbitration is principally a function of the Judiciary. Ordinarily, aggrieved parties seek recourse in a court of law, whose decisions are binding. The speed, the manner of marking and release of the 2016 Kenya Certificate of Primary Examinations and the Kenya Certificate of Secondary Examination results left many agape.

The resultant reactions and discourses in the media on the implications have been interesting to follow. One can however easily determine that those demanding Matiang’i’s scalp really don’t have much of a case; theirs is a hangover from a disturbed status quo.
