    "content": " Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir. I mainly want to support the further amendment because I am against national institutions being given regional names like Kakamega or Maseno. These are national institutions. In the same breath, I am against national institutions being necessarily led by individuals from the areas they are located. We have become completely local about our universities such that if you are a Vice-Chancellor of Moi University, because it is in the Rift Valley, you have to be a Kalenjin. If the university is in Central Kenya such as the JKUAT, the Vice-Chancellor, must be a person from Central Kenya. Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, basically, I am arguing against the idea of universities being local in name as well as in management. Therefore, the naming of the institution after a national hero should not just be because he fought for Western Kenya, but because he fought for Kenya. This will be the only reason for naming the institution after Mr. Muliro."
