Every year we welcome into our community several teenagers between 13 and 17 from far and near. They are both male and female. They have the same mission. They have come to write General Certificate Examination (G.C.E). Most of them are penultimate students in secondary schools. These little fellows have been fixed at centres nearby to write their exams and the people that brought them have accommodation as part of the payment agreement.
Some of these children are leaving home for the first time. Some of them look like mom's pets. Immediately they hit the town, you see a lot of ambiance and noise, something like a carnival. They make noise in the morning while looking for water for domestic use and in the evening when they are back from their different centres. It's always a new experience for most of them, and they seem to enjoy it: yea, they seem to enjoy being away from home for a whole month, a kind of escape from the eagle eyes of their parents; they seem to enjoy a time to make their own decisions, go wherever they like and do whatever they like. And that's where the deadly booty trap is laid.
The children I see around really don't look like they come for exams. Some people say these little fellows have already paid to be assisted during their exams. The only difficult task they have to do is to copy the already prepared answers; and really, that's a lot of work for students who feel they they have paid for all the services which includes having their preferred grades awarded to them by the examination body.
But really, the sexual exploitation of these semi-innocent tadpoles by the people who arrange these examination miracle centres for them is so alarming! These small children also enjoy having big uncles drill through them in the night as long as these predators don't fail in their responsibilities in bringing the ready prepared answers as and when due.
Something happened a couple of days ago. There was a big fight among some of the GCE candidates in the neighbourhood. What was the cause of the fight? One boy accused a particular girl that she was a prostitute! She was mad with anger! After a while when she cooled off; she said that she was angry with the boy that accused her of being a prostitute because he was also part of those that *did it* with her! One of them! And the exam is not yet over!
