The Malawi National Examinations Board (MANEB ) has announced that it will administer deferred 2023 Malawi School Certificate of Education(MSCE) examinations to four candidates whose exam papers were stolen at Bulala Community Day Secondary School(CDSS) in Mzimba North.
In a statement, MANEB Executive Director(ED) Dorothy Nampota says the burglars who broke into the storage room at the school on Sunday night tampered with nine envelopes of already written
papers.
“They tampered with papers for Agriculture 1, Biology 1, English 1, 2 and 3

“Maneb would like to assure the public that the burglars did not tamper with the
papers that are yet to be administered,”she assures.
