"content": "However, we have actually put more money in public universities. In fact, this financial year, an extra Kshs2.5 billion was voted for the expansion of those universities. The reason that expansion is possible is because these resources are being availed. I agree that we are not giving as much as we would like to see happen. If the lecturers are moonlighting, it is not because there has not been an increment in the funding. In fact, two years ago, lecturer's salaries were raised. Of course, they would like to have more money like the teachers. If you need more money, you have to do an extra job. So, sometimes, they moonlight because they also want extra cash. However, I agree with you and we will continue putting in resources for research and for teaching facilities. This is because we realised that we cannot expand without providing more resources, but that will depend on how much money is available to support university education relative to other sectors."
