    "content": "Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, it is very unfortunate that our boys and girls depend on benevolence, hospitality and generosity of members of public to access education in this country. We are undermining Article 53 that provides for basic education to each and every child. I am also aware that the Government, through the Ministry of Education, is supposed to construct 16,000 classrooms. These classrooms should be ready by this December. This is to accommodate Grade 9 under the Competency-Based Curriculum (CBC). We know there are challenges of teachers. We do not have enough teachers. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, in the history of this Republic, from President Kenyatta Snr. President Moi, President Kibaki and President Uhuru Kenyatta, none has ever hired on permanent and pensionable, 56,000 teachers the way President William Ruto has done. I would like to thank him. The Government will hire 20,000 interns to complement and supplement the rollout of CBC programmes. As I sit here today, I have been salamiwad by most of the young people, the 30,000 interns under Public Service Commission (PSC). I have received close to 5,000 messages from over 30,000 interns at the PSC who are requesting to be transited to be permanent and pensionable."
