"content": "Government or the Executive does not have the capacity to fund and sustain them. As he comes up with that Statement, we need to be very clear on what modalities or measures we are putting in place to ensure that the existing universities remain afloat. Which measures will we put in place to shut down those that have no capacity to stay afloat? A university is opened every day. When you go to the constituencies, they force you to ask for a university. From where I sit, I know opening new universities is no longer sustainable. As a country, we need to be very clear whether we need to continue opening them. Even if you look at the returns from the Kenya Universities and Colleges Central Placement Service (KUCCPS), you find that most students who qualify to join the university opt for Technical, Vocational Education and Training (TVET) institutions instead of universities. So, it is time we rethink how to manage our universities. Thank you, Hon. Speaker."
