An awareness campaign against widespread corruption in universities, which includes bribery by students to get good results, false diplomas and sex to gain promotion, has been launched by CONAC, the national anti-corruption commission. According to a source “The main kind of corruption here is the sale of grades by certain teachers. Students whose work is bad get teachers or education officials to improve their grades”. CONAC found instances of nepotism, counterfeiting of results, false diplomas, promotions in return for sex, and abuse of power.

The Minister of Secondary Education has banned some Teachers and candidates who were involved in the 2004/2005 examination fraud. Malpractices ranged from award of undeserved marks, release of examination questions ahead of time or attempt to answer questions for candidates in examination halls.
