Temporary Speaker, for giving me this opportunity so that I can contribute to such matters of importance in our Republic and matters that concern the people whom we represent. Let me take this opportunity to say that first of all, the Non-Governmental Organisation (NGO) that took the matter to court and the judges who made that ruling did it against… I am even looking for better words to describe them because they live in an illusion where they do not understand what happens to the common mwananchi in our constituencies. I came to this House through a by-election. I was able to support 8,000 students within a period of one year by giving them bursaries so that they can see the doors of high school. They were unable to raise the school fees demanded by public secondary schools. Even raising Ksh100 to support your family is becoming an issue today in our country. So, bursaries given through the NG-CDF come in handy. Some Members of Parliament managed to come to this House through bursaries that they were given through the NG-CDF by their then Members of Parliament. It will look bad if we can only fund our children to go to secondary schools and other institutions yet, children of poor people, peasants, and those who are unable to raise school fees cannot go to school The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for informationpurposes only.
