Speaker, if you indulge me, I think this is a matter that is very sensitive to many Kenyan parents. Especially those of us with students pursuing university education because of an exponential increment three-fold - from Kshs16,000 to Kshs48,000 per year. This is at a time when MPs will tell you that, six months down the line, they are yet to get even Kshs1 in their National Government Constituencies Development Fund (NG-CDF) account. Most of our students back in our constituencies rely on NG-CDF bursaries to help them pay fees."}
