"content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, it is obvious that we have a problem with our youth in this country. They drop out of school at a certain level. They embark on Jua Kali jobs which does not produce skilled labour. Therefore, we end up with a lot of our youth without skilled labour. If we need to impart proper skills on our youth, we definitely have to offer more parallel programmes than we are doing at the moment. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, there is a great aspiration within our people. They no longer believe that after secondary education that is the end of the road. Their aspiration is to go to university and earn a degree. Therefore, we must be able to facilitate them. Currently, our children are enjoying the benefits of free primary education and the subsidized secondary education. How can we protect and sustain those benefits? We can only do this by making sure many of them are admitted to our public universities."
