The Kenyan government has launched an initiative to register over one million secondary school students, primarily Form Four candidates, for national identity cards. This move aims to enable these students to register as voters for the upcoming 2027 General Election.

• Over 1.04 million Form Four students are registered for this year's KCSE exams.
• Interior Cabinet Secretary Kipchumba Murkomen and Principal Secretary Raymond Omollo are leading the registration drive.
• The government is issuing IDs free of charge, waiving the usual Sh1,000 fee, and aims for a seven-day turnaround for ID delivery after biometric capture.
