    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker, for giving me this opportunity. I also support this Report. I congratulate Hon. Chepkonga and his team for bringing this timely Report to annul regulations that are not useful to Kenyans. Kenyan universities have become too much commercialised, without regard to any sort of benefits to communities. The type of graduates we are churning out will show or tell you that what is happening there is of very low standards. Regulations are just made left and right without passing them through this House. Different universities have different regulations. All this is compromising the quality of education. I advertised some positions for my small company recently, and conducted interviews, and if you look at the papers the students have, you will wonder what type of papers they are. They are so good and nice. You long to see those interviewed working. The way those that come in front of you talk, the quality of their English is wanting. If you give them a small written test, qualifications on their papers are contrary to what they write and talk to one another. You wonder which type of universities they went through. Because of that, Parliament should make sure proper regulations are passed. Regulations that are not beneficial to the education sector of this country and are already in place should be annulled. That is what we are doing now. For that matter, I support the annulment of these regulations and many others that have similar characteristics that do not help the citizens of Kenya in any way."
