"content": "Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker Sir. I also stand to support this Vote. I want to take the shortest time possible and I want to start by asking the Minister for Higher Education, Science and Technology to serve Kenyans by considering their needs. There is a concern with regard to space in our universities. It is my kind request to the Minister to make sure that there is expansion of our universities. The amount of money that poor Kenyans are spending by sending students to South Africa, Europe and to the United States of America is a matter of great concern. If you go to the United States of America Embassy, you will see how our Kenyan students suffer there, queuing to be issued with visas to go and study in America. This also happens in the British High Commission. Therefore, it is paramount that we build enough universities in this country. The planners in this country must plan and base their plans on issues that concern Kenyans. We spent Kshs700 million recently to buy the Prime Ministerâs office. We will also spend another Kshs500 million to renovate the same building when in actual fact, we are going to deploy someone there someone who should have worked and operated with what we have. That money should have been used to build more universities."
