"content": "the first world was because of education. They do not have gold, maize or cows. They invested in human beings. Madam Temporary Speaker, I know I am the only one supporting this laptop business because what harm will it cost if we test what we have never done? We should try this thing even if it will fail next year. However, they should not bring the laptops that we know. They need to bring plastic laptops which cannot break. We may have to rebrand them and get a new name, so that there is no war. The teachers are now on the streets thinking that they will be given the same laptops that they are using which are very heavy. They could even cause damage to the children. This Motion has come at the right time, to the extent that this current Government does not need to bring an amendment to bring a variation of funds. Rather than keeping money in their books, when there is another quarter, they sit down with the county governments and do the arithmetic; how much it costs per county. This situation obtains in all the counties. I went to a school in Murang’a and it was miserable. Some people may think that there are good schools in some places. When it comes to schools, we should be bold and say that those who build in the 1950s and did it wrongly and those who have not done it today, are equal. If this Government agrees to move towards that direction, then we shall sort out this problem. I will be counting to see who does not support this Motion. I support the Motion and encourage my colleagues to discuss it with open hearts and minds."
