    "content": "If the NG-CDF was as we are trying to entrench it into the Constitution through the Amendment which is before the House, things could have been better. We should come up with a way that even the NG-CDF Board will not be influenced by the Executive as to who is to get the funds before who. Sometimes you find that there are constituencies which get funds faster than others, others get complete amounts while others do not. We should come out in a way that there is neutrality when it comes to disbursement of the funds. There should be no discrimination of whatever nature. This is very necessary taking into account most of the rural areas where people are struggling on how to earn a living and take their children to school. We have day schools which came up during the late President Mwai Kibaki’s time when Hon. Muriuki Karue came up with the CDF Bill which was supported by the House at that time. However, as it is without this money, the Government stated clearly that it would sponsor these schools fully and students are supposed to enjoy their education without paying a penny. This is difficult because the teachers are left with nothing to eat and they are forced to device a way in which the children are supposed to have for lunch and sustain them in schools."
