    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, first of all, the Jomo Kenyatta Foundation Bursary is fairly limited. I just wish to tell the House that the hon. Member is not right to say that we have been giving scholarships to an average of two. It varies. For example, in 2003, we took four; in 2004, we took another four and in 2005 we took four. Then in 2011, we took four and this year we took four. The number of bursaries that the Jomo Kenyatta Foundation gives countrywide depend on the available money; that is the money it has at any given time. As regards taking care of students who qualify to join national schools, all constituencies have the bursary from the Ministry of Education, and hon. Members are a party to it in that either they are on the committee themselves or they are represented in the committee. So can he also use the bursary from the Ministry of Education, which goes to every constituency and it is calculated based on the poverty index. Turkana will benefit a lot because of that aspect. That takes care of the hon. Member’s concern."
