"content": "Kenyans accessing education at their doorstep? I am afraid to say, âNo, this is not being done.â I hope and pray that this time when Dr. Kosgey is in office will be the time for the people of northern Kenya and upper Eastern, that is the pastoralist communities, to have a university, a technical college, and a national polytechnic at their doorstep. I would like to urge the Government and the Ministry that we need to have a university in Garissa, where I come from. I want us to have an expansion of higher education that is equitable, fair and available in every corner of this country. I would like to urge the Ministry of Higher Education, Science and Technology to market Kenyan universities. Many Kenyans want to go out. They want to go an extra mile and that is why they ask their respective Members of Parliament to conduct for them major fundraisings, so that they can go to very expensive universities to do expensive courses that can be competitively provided in our local universities. So, this Ministry must walk the talk. It must market our universities. It needs to talk to the various university senates and councils to do what the private sector does, that is branding and marketing themselves."
