"content": "of various interventions, we can recruit teachers. As my colleague Senator for Mandera has said, the counties have taken up the initiative to train their teachers. There are almost 2000 students who have joined technical colleges and universities, and in the next five years, these counties will have enough teachers. This is a good move. The cluster points issue which has been an obstacle to the training of teachers has now been removed by the Ministry of Education. The subject clusters are not there now. Anyone with a C+ can now do a diploma. This has given us leeway to train enough teachers which is a commendable thing. The student-centered financial support is a good move. However, this was not well done. We need to do more studies and see how effective this will be. I have seen concern and complaints from students who have joined the university. They are stranded and cannot pay their fees. Most of them are almost dropping out. We need to go back to the drawing table so that at least, we can know how best people can benefit. As it is now, there is no clarity on the whole issue."
