Controversial ENAM results: Director suggests replacing dead man with a living candidate

The director of the National School of Administration and Magistracy has suggested that the name of the man who passed the exams even without taking the last phase be replaced with that of a candidate still alive.

This comes amid increasing calls for more light to be shed on the incident. 

A man from the South region is reported to have passed the exams, though he had died before the final part.

The director of ENAM believes that it was an error.

This session of the exams is one of the most controversial, with the Minister of Public Service adding hundreds of  names to a list initially published by the director.

This new twist in events has made pundits wonder if the list of successful candidates for any competitive entrance exam is pre-established before the exam is taken.
