"content": "In a whole sub-county with two wards, the only three boarding schools serving the pastoralist nomadic society have now been closed. We do not even know where they got the information from because the local and education administration reported that the boarding schools are compliant. Nobody knows where they got this information from. How can they close a school in Liboi, Damajale, or in a place called Kulan, where the parents are out there with their cows and camels, and one of them has over 400 students? It is a pity that the Chairman of the Departmental Committee on Education and Research is not here. That is not good. That is an educational catastrophe that renders more than 1,000 young men and women unable to go ahead with their education for one reason or another. This is a very glaring thing. We put up those boarding schools so that the students can access them. The directive has to be reversed. I do not know how they are going to reverse it. At least, in the case of those nomadic pastoralist communities where they did not even go, and the ones that have complied like the one Hon. Osoro is talking about, they must reverse the directive immediately and reinstate them as boarding schools. That is the only way our children can access education."
