Affidavit of support is optional. However, you need to prove that you will not become a public charge in the US once granted the visa by providing other forms of financial evidence for example a bank statement, land title etc. Check this out from the DOS website;
IF I AM SUCCESSFUL IN OBTAINING A VISA THROUGH THE DV PROGRAM, WILL THE U.S. GOVERNMENT ASSIST WITH MY AIRFARE TO THE UNITED STATES, PROVIDE ASSISTANCE TO LOCATE HOUSING AND EMPLOYMENT, PROVIDE HEALTHCARE, OR PROVIDE ANY SUBSIDIES UNTIL I AM FULLY SETTLED?
No, applicants who obtain a DV are not provided any type of assistance such as airfare, housing assistance, or subsidies. If you are selected to apply for a DV, you will be required to provide evidence that you will not become a public charge in the United States before being issued a visa. This evidence may be in the form of a combination of your personal assets, an Affidavit of Support (Form I-134) from a relative or friend residing in the United States, and/or an offer of employment from an employer in the United States.
KCSE is the most important to those guys. Even if one has a PHD from Havard, with a KCSE mean grade of C-, you get dumped. It is all about beating the competition guys. Remember there are over 100,000 winners minus derivatives who are competing for 50,000 visas. So they are looking for the smallest reason to deny you a visa and give it to another person with a clean record ( meaning passed with flying colours).

HAS NO HIGH SCHOOL DIPLOMA=== CORRECT HEXA CORRECT. hey but why would one apply if she had NO DIPOMA hics hics
We r all pushing our luck to see how far it would take us
In countries where many people don't speak English, there are agents who offer to do your DV entry for a fee. The most unscrupulous of these agents don't care if you have HS diploma, they just want to get your fee. So, there are cases when the winners don't actually qualify.
And then there are people who is just pushing their luck, or willing to get fake diplomas to move ahead. The US embassy in my country even has a warning out: if you submit a falsified document, we won't just deny your application, we will report you to the national police.

Lost Confirmation Number
If you checked your status using your personal computer that memorises data previously filled-in in online forms, all hope not lost yet. (Even public computer (office, internet cafe) will do, but you must find the specific computer you used and hope the cache has not been deleted, then there maybe many numbers to select from, if other people have been using the same computer to check their status).
Anyway, once you are on the specific computer and web-browser that you used before, all you have to do is to go back to the confirmation website (www.dvlottery.state.gov/ESC/) and as you start to type the confirmation number 2013... it should display the previously entered number, and you are good to go. Then fill in your last name and DOB and you'll be taken back to your 1st NL.

This is not true. I won DV Lottery in DV 2012 and got my visa in Nairobi Embassy early 2012. I had a mean grade of C- (Minus) in KCSE but had a Masters degree from a US university. I lived in the US for 3 years before coming back to Kenya and won the lottery and my visa was approved with no issues. I am now back in the US. So its not true that KCSE is the final qualification, if you have post secondary qualifications e.g. Bachelors degree and your performance is good those folks at the embassy should approve your visa with no issues! Good Luck folks

It is not true for you but it is true for others who have also posted in this forum. Remember you did your Masters from the US. Your case is exceptional. Your documents were evaluated by the US and they took you on for their Masters. So the embassy had to tag along. It is a different scenario for some one who studied here. Some one was denied yet they had a Diploma in Law and work experience but was told they had a C-. Anyway, at the end of the day, there is also lady luck. If she smiles yo way, you can beat the odds.

I like that. Never had the slightest idea.
