    "content": "Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I would like to inform my very able colleague that, indeed, what he is talking about has already been done. When I was at the Ministry of Energy we had a programme for universal electricity connectivity for this country by the year 2030. We prepared a rural electrification master plan which listed all primary and secondary schools, and other public institutions. The costing was also done. I believe these figures could be linked to that rural electrification master plan because it is available. We only managed to connect about 90 per cent of the secondary schools. But a large number of primary schools were not connected, except those which were near the grid because our target was not primary schools, but secondary schools. I fully support the laptop programme for our primary school pupils. We, as the Senate, should not obstruct transformation of this country. We will not transform if we do not embrace the computer era because this is the direction the rest of the world is taking."
