Detectives from the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) have arrested  Albert Kerry Nyadianga and David Opiyo, Aka G.O.A.T, for their involvement in the False Publication and making of fake Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE) 2025 results slips, and circulating them on various social media platforms. 

Like fishermen casting bait in murky waters, the duo had been luring desperate candidates and parents with promises of “upgraded” grades, at a price. They boldly claimed they could tweak the KCSE results slip at a fee. 

Their house of cards came crashing down following a meticulous operation by DCI officers on secondment at the Kenya National Examinations Council (KNEC). 

In a coordinated swoop, Nyadianga was arrested in Kisumu while his accomplice, Opiyo, was cornered in Ongata Rongai.

Preliminary investigations have established that Opiyo, the mastermind of the scheme, is a primary school teacher by profession. He commands a massive online following of 45,200 followers in a group misleadingly branded “KCSE 2025 Grade Upgrading.”

Further checks show that he is also active in several other online forums associated with examination manipulation claims, including KNEC Legit Papers and Upgrading, Group Booster Support, KNEC/KASNEB/ICM/CDA, and KNEC Grade Editing, among others.

A search of their mobile devices unearthed images of fake KCSE result slips and other examination material, further exposing their shady dealings.

The pair is currently in custody, undergoing processing ahead of their day in court.

The DCI, in collaboration with KNEC, warns members of the public to remain vigilant against fraudsters peddling illusions of grade manipulation. 

KCSE results are secure, tamper-proof, and cannot be altered by middlemen hawking false hope.

Meanwhile, detectives have intensified efforts to trail down other individuals involved in this scam, as the dragnet tightens around academic fraud networks.
