"content": "I would hope that the Senator for Machakos would dig deeper into how the floods have affected the learning institutions for children with disabilities in the country. It has had a big effect and no one is talking about them. Mr. Speaker, Sir, right now, there is a conference called the Inclusive Africa Conference that is talking about assistive technology and devices for PwDs across the country. There is no point in these amazing initiatives and assistive equipment being brought to the country and donated to our schools like Thika School for the Blind, Likoni School for the Blind and others, when in one whoop the flood destroys everything, then schools have to start from scratch since these are aid assistance that is being given to these schools. There is no sustainability in the country for these devices, schools, and learners. We need more manufacturers to be brought to Kenya, so that these equipment can be found easily and cheaply within the country. We do not have to rely on the Western World to bring them to us and then lose them in a moment through these types of weather patterns that we are seeing. I thank you."
