Ethiopia Blocked Social Media Sites During University Entrance Examinations by RoyalMail: 5:25pm On Jul 11, 2016 |
Ethiopia has blocked social media sites during university entrance examinations to prevent students from being "distracted", a government spokesman has told AFP news agency... Some end-of-year examination papers were posted online last month forcing the exams to be scrapped. Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and Viber have been inaccessible in the country since Saturday, AFP reports. "It's blocked. It's a temporary measure until Wednesday. Social media have proven to be a distraction for students," government spokesman Getachew Reda is quoted as saying. Prominent Ethiopian blogger Daniel Berhane has however condemned the move.

RoyalMail: I took the exam but it was very hard to take it being prepared cuz the first one was stolrn and the questions were posted on fb so, it was cancelled then we had to wait again for a new exam to be released after a month. But some ppl were trying to annoy us by posting fake questions telling us the new one was stolen. The government did the right thing but felt sorry for the ones not taking the test suffering through this ban |
