"content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, as I was looking through it, to me, even these qualifications are too high. We need to reduce them even further. Take, for example, a driver. A driver does not need to have reached Standard Eight. What is required is if can read the road signs. That is all! Most of the competent and accident-free drivers are, in fact, illiterate. For example, the ones that were employed even during the colonial times. They were illiterate and, yet, they had accident-free record of 40 years. So, to me, even this requirement that a driver from North Eastern Province and other Arid and Semi-Arid Lands (ASALs) must have a Form Four certificate is too high. All they need is to be able to read the road signs. Maneno kwisha ! That is enough."
