    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, I beg to lay the following Report on Petition, on the Table of the Senate, today, Thursday 11th February 2021- Report of the Standing Committee on Education on a Petition to the Senate by Mr. Moses Njenga and Mr. Joseph Mugambi concerning the delayed opening of Njiru Secondary School, Kasarani, Nairobi City County. Mr. Speaker, Sir, this Petition has over-stayed. This is because it was reported to the Senate on 13th November, 2019. Our Committee visited the school and established that Njiru Secondary School had not been opened and had a number of challenges. The national Government through the National Government-Constituency Development Fund (NG-CDF) had already constructed a number of classrooms on public land LR. No.13468/787. However, the major challenge was that the said school was surrounded by a quarry. Therefore, there was a lot of dust, no sanitary facilities and the sewer lines passed near the school. When we visited the school, we advised the stakeholders together with the Board of Management (BoM) of the school on the way forward. We proposed to them to speak to the Committee on Land, Environment and Natural Resources so that the sewer can be shifted to another area. The main road to the sewer was close to the school and it raised a lot dust. The school did not also have sanitary facilities, water nor offices. This became a challenge because the environment must be conducive for human habitation before any school is opened. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate."
