"content": "You will find that the issue of free and compulsory education has been adequately addressed in the Constitution and also in the Bill. This is the issue of poverty that is disturbing in the countryside. As Members of Parliament, we are given bursary money and CDF from the parent Ministry but you cannot satisfy all people in the constituency who need the bursary. Some Members of Parliament end up even giving Kshs2,000 which is totally inadequate. You find that most of the children are still out there just as the Minister indicated. Providing free secondary education will at least bring equity because the children of the poor will be able to access it. So, this will be very good news to the people at the grassroots level who have been complaining that they cannot pay school fees for their children."
