"content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, the policy applies to all students. Even students in the regular programme are expected to meet all the costs of university education. They are also sent out until they pay the fees. This policy is not discriminatory against the parallel degree students. The University of Nairobi is owed up to Kshs500 million by parallel degree students; Kshs157 million by the active students and another Kshs400 million by those who decided to desert. It is very difficult for the university to function if you have students who do not pay for part of their upkeep. So, it is a serious problem and the university is owed up to about Kshs500 million. We really need to appreciate the position in which our universities are in given that the Government is not even able to give them everything they ask for their maintenance and upkeep. 1298 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES May 15, 2007"
