    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker, for giving me the opportunity to contribute to this Statement. We cannot regress. We have come a long way in matters of academics. If there are regions that feel that they are marginalised because their people do not meet the qualifications, I propose that we become deliberate. Those regions should take their people to school to meet the qualifications. Otherwise, if we decide to revise the qualifications for every position, we will be regressing. I do not support the case of Nairobi where chiefs are transferred. One of the qualifications for appointment as a chief is that you must have been a resident of the area for over six years. Let us take our people to school so that they can qualify. We have been appropriating a lot of money through the National Government Constituencies Development Fund (NG-CDF) for infrastructure development in schools. What are we saying? Should we stop going to school because we want to be chiefs? I do not agree."
