    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, it is good we guide Sen. Methu to see what we can do so that we push for this truth to come to light. Integrity is everything. I know, not many might know, but a Member of the Cabinet, Henry Pius Masinde Muliro, former Member of Parliament (MP) of Kitale East Constituency, quit his job as a minister because he said he could not sit in a Government that the probe had indicated had a part in the killing of Josiah Mwangi Kariuki. Mr. Speaker, Sir, my second comment is on the matter raised by Sen. Onyonka about the position of mathematics in our new education system. I would like to appeal to us, politicians and the rest of the Kenyans that this matter must be left to professionals. Those of you who are old enough know that in our “O” and “A” level system of education, Mathematics was mandatory for all of us from primary up to the end of “O” level in the fourth year in secondary school. However, when we were specializing at “A” level, there was no need for us to be given further Mathematics, unless you are pursuing a pathway that was scientific. Therefore, I would like to support those people who are thinking that at senior secondary, it might not be necessary to teach people Mathematics. Let Mathematics be taught up to and including junior secondary. Mr. Speaker, Sir, my last comment is on the Statement sought by Sen. Onyonka. He has raised the issue of drug trafficking, and in particular, the unfortunate incident of the arrest of Margaret Nduta."
