    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, we have no intention of closing the certificate and diploma courses in Rongo. We now have a policy that we will not close anything. Whenever we upgrade an institution that has had technical courses, we do realize that we need more technical courses, in fact, right now than the universities. So, we have no intention of closing them down. Rongo will continue to offer certificate and diploma courses. What was done, and this resulted in the request for transfer by the Principal and Deputy Principal, was that the transition was not initiated properly. If it was initiated properly, like it was in Kenya Polytechnic, actually the Principal has the opportunity to be a director in charge of those programmes, because we are going to retain our different programmes whenever we upgrade any of these institutions to university status. So, there is still that vacancy and during the inauguration, which I attended personally, I did assure the Principal that she has a job cut out for her under the new University College of Rongo."
