Fmr. Amansie South DCE Proposes Use Of Drones To Deliver Exam Questions To Schools

Former Amansie South DCE, Clement Opoku Gyamfi alias CID has proposed the use of drones to deliver exams papers to schools across the nation.

The former DCE, sharing his observations on how some students at particularly the second-cycle institutions suffer during exams due to lapses in the exam process, noted that one of the ways to solve the delays is for the government to adopt the Akufo-Addo/Bawumia drone delivery policy.

Clement Opoku Gyamfi raised concerns about how some students in the hinterlands are severely affected by decisions by WAEC such as cancellation of exams or when the examination body withholds the papers on suspicion of exam leak.

He wondered why this keeps happening almost every year and hoped for a lasting solution to the problem.

While suggesting ways to curb this challenge, it was disclosed that there are instances where some of the schools, especially those in the cities, start their exams an hour or more before others.

He believed the drone delivery system will help to nip this challenge in the bud.

“…we also used our drones in all the exam centers, especially the hard-to-reach zones. I am privy to the fact that a place like Drobonso, we used drones to transport the question papers from Kumasi to them and it arrives on time for the students to successfully write the exams”, he remarked during Peace FM’s “Kokrokoo” show.
