Thursday, November 14, 2024 - One of the country's most sought-after fraudsters involved in the 2024 KCSE examination malpractices, Collins Kipchumba Kemboi has today been arrested within the Kiamunyi area of Nakuru.
Operating in the guise of a female namely Dorothy Jerop
Kiprono, the 23-year-old man had become the nightmare of KNEC officials, having
mobilized a following of over 78,000 exam leakage seekers in his Telegram
account and over 8,500 in his WhatsApp groups.
In an all-out war to curb the unbecoming practice of
cheating, DCI officers attached to KNEC jointly with their Nakuru County
counterparts sharpened their claws on the miscreant, pouncing on him like a
cornered rat at his abode in Kiamunyi.
The detectives had no business turning the house upside down
in search of evidence, as Kemboi was caught pants down with his tools of trade
right on the table.
His key asset - an Infinix Hot 10 Lite phone - used to
fleece unsuspecting grade-seekers was confiscated, alongside several SIM cards,
national IDs bearing different names, and a driving license.
Probing further, the detectives established that Kemboi is a
graduate of a Kenyan university, holding a Bachelor of Arts in Human Resource
Management.
He is also employed as a salesperson by an international
company and has his roots in the Kaseta area of Sacho in Baringo County.
After a bad day in office, Kemboi is now cooling his heels at Nakuru Central Police Station cells, staring at charges of fraud and unauthorized possession of examination materials.
