    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir, for the opportunity and thank you, Cabinet Secretary for the answers. I am just wondering about the universities in relation to the Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVETs) and you answered the question earlier. How much space do we have in the TVETs and mid-level colleges to absorb our students? I am asking that because you have rightfully said the percentage of the university is about 20 of those who did KCSE. You have also said that those figures are at least well-accommodated as far as admission is concerned, because we have even extra rooms. How many do we have in the mid-level colleges? This percentage that qualifies to go to college, what capacity do we have for them? That is for the mid-level, before we even talk of Vocation Training Centres. I know, since you are a Cabinet Secretary for both basic and higher education, we also have students who were offloaded in class eight and they could not go to secondary school because the spaces were less than the output that came out of primary schools. What plans does the Ministry have to make sure that we do not offload our children to the streets? This is because they are either somewhere or they are nowhere and we will find them out there in the streets."
