    "content": " Thank you very much, Hon. Speaker. First, I would like to take this opportunity to congratulate the Cabinet Secretary for Education, who is a very good friend, a former colleague, and a family friend, because his son was my lecturer at the University of Nairobi’s School of Law. Hon. Speaker, my question is about what is currently happening in public primary schools, which is very sad. Learners are being sent away from schools because of certain materials which are required from them. For example, they are told that they cannot go to school without paying money for desks and other costs. As we speak, there is a primary school called Edelvale Primary School in Embakasi East Constituency that has sent away 65 learners because the administration is demanding Ksh1,500. I know that this is affecting the whole country. Why are we charging learners those monies if public primary schools are meant to be free?"
