    "content": "Since polytechnics have been devolved to county governments, I hope that county governments will be able to allocate enough resources so that those polytechnics can be improved with new infrastructure and new equipment to cope with the current trend. So, my wish is to have a polytechnic in every ward in the constituency so that graduates from Class Eight and Form Four are able to join them. We have several courses offered there, for example, plumbing and others. Nowadays, plumbers are rare and yet we have people who can be trained in polytechnics. We need people who can also do carpentry, masonry and auto-welding engineering. These would be the graduates who fail to go to other tertiary and national colleges. The Higher Education Loans Board (HELB) has done a commendable job, but still the funds they are giving to Form Four leavers who are joining universities are not enough."
