"content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I would like to make a Personal Statement under Standing Order No.69. Last night, there was a statement which was aired by the NationTelevision regarding a student who was admitted to Mangu High School. It was alleged that the student had been looking for me to assist him get bursary. Unfortunately, he has not managed to meet me so that we discuss this issue. There are many students from my area, but living in Nairobi. As such, they are residents of Nairobi City Council. We all know Nairobi City Council is divided into various constituencies. Therefore, students seeking bursaries should go to their respective hon. Members of Parliament. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I am trying to say that I would not mind if a student from Ugenya comes to my constituency office to seek for any help. There are procedures to be followed. This story was aired by Nation TV and written by Nation Newspaper . There must be something wrong somewhere with this paper. There are too many students in Ugenya who number about 720 students that I have given bursary funds from the CDF and those that have benefited through the Ministry of Education. My schools cannot enrol thousands and thousands of Ugenya Constituency students. The story was quite malicious and I request that it be withdrawn forthwith and Nation TV and the management of the Nation Newspaper apologise to me because there are needy orphaned students that are in my school. My schools were built in the 1960s."
