    "content": " I will be very brief, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I have a quick question now that we are talking about universities. Hon. Cabinet Secretary, there are teachers who marked KCSE examinations almost eight months ago and have not been paid, yet students are about to join universities. What plans do you have for teachers who marked KCSE examinations for 2022? Secondly, the Cabinet Secretary for Education, who is a good friend, made a pronouncement when he came here for the first time. I am told he also made the same pronouncement in Mombasa. He said that KCSE certificates that are held by schools will be released. Can we, therefore, have a circular to that effect? Can he make a public pronouncement on radio and television, so that hustlers who have completed school can collect their certificates? There is no relationship between KCSE certificates and fees because they are paid for by the Kenya National Examinations Council (KNEC) and they have no costs. On the issue of congestion in one of the premium schools in Kenya, Moi Girls, where I am a parent, I besiege the Cabinet Secretary and his Principal Secretary to visit the school. Its classrooms were built during the colonial time and, therefore, there are excess students. Two, the school’s computer lab got burnt. Could the Cabinet Secretary save the only premier institution for the girl child? Finally, there is a school in my constituency called ‘Yatia’ where the workers have not been paid for almost two years. The school is unable to get income because the students have reduced to 31 because of banditry. What plans does the Cabinet Secretary have to ensure that Yatia Secondary School operates normally because it serves children in pastoral community? On the other things, I will visit the Cabinet Secretary to share with him and the Principal Secretary. Thank you."
