    "content": "schools. So, we cannot mix the two administrations thinking that they will be helpful to our children. It is a mockery to move around schools listening to what parents are going through. We are condemning them to provide equipment, which the Government is supposed to provide and yet, many of them are very poor. In fact, at the end of the day, you will find parents providing more than the Government. The Ksh15,000 capitation is not enough. So, the burden will be borne by the poor parents. I find this system not working well. It will benefit only a few students in private institutions. We are going to create disparities. For example, my constituency has 87 primary schools, out of which 17 have been condemned. They cannot host junior secondary because they have less than 35 students. Those children are forced to walk 10 kilometres to school. That means the Government, in its policy, has become discriminative. You can imagine a kid walking for 10 kilometres because a school has less than 35 students. Hon. Temporary Speaker, I support the Motion brought by Hon. Ruku by saying education is the only thing that will bring everybody together, but I doubt if this system will do so. Thank you."
