    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, for giving me this opportunity. I will also comment on the Statement raised by the Senator for Kisumu County on education. From where I am seated, the education system in Kenya is discriminative. I raised a Statement concerning hijabs in some public secondary schools and still, up to now, they are not allowing Muslim girls to wear hijabs in school. That is Alliance Girls and Kenya High. I interrogated that Statement with the Cabinet Secretary for Education and the reason they gave us is not enough. To add on that, both of these schools are public schools funded by taxpayers. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, when it also comes to safety measures in a school, the first priority in a society is to take care of our children. Last night in the news, I saw that a student fell in an open septic tank and lost his life. We need the Ministry of Education to take charge and inspect each school, be it private or public. If they are not conducive for our children, they must be closed down."
