    "content": "Thank you, Madam Deputy Speaker, for giving me this opportunity to add on to what my colleagues have raised concerning reopening of schools. I do not think the idea here is to oppose or support. For example, in some parts of this country, there was a lot of rainfall and floods. Classrooms were submerged and are still submerged up to now in Kisumu County, Baringo County and many other parts of the country. It is a matter of preparedness and what has been done. I know most parents would want to have schools open. All bars are open and I see people attending political rallies, why not open schools? It is as if Kenyans believe that COVID-19 is not there. I do not know where they got the idea from. If Kenyans do not fear and they mix freely, it means they can easily infect their children. By allowing children to go back to school, we are not adding more harm to them. The issue is the preparedness. What has the Ministry of Education done? We have never received any report. In Kisumu, for example, some schools are still submerged. I do not know where these learners are going to go to school"
