    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Cabinet Secretary, let us admit it. From your table, the school needs Kshs12.9 billion in pending bills and you want to give them Kshs145 million per month for the next six months. That gives us a total of Kshs870 million. That is in view of the paltry Kshs207 million that they are able to generate on their own. The college is insolvent. Hon. Cabinet Secretary, can you make an undertaking? You cannot do it now, but you can take an undertaking that a few weeks or months from now, you will present to the public a comprehensive strategy of how you want to weed out the insolvency problem at the TUK. Having said that, allow me to briefly make a passing remark. The Government must do something to let the parents know that it is not a must that every child gets a university degree. The courses that were being offered by the Kenya Polytechnic before it was converted to a university were equally competitive in the job market. Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Director, Hansard and AudioServices, Senate."
