    "content": "trying to give them each a computer when they do not have text books. We have also not trained enough teachers as you noted earlier. So, who is going to teach them how to handle these particular gadgets? So, let us get our priorities right. Let us, first of all, give our schools the infrastructure they need such as enough classrooms. Let us give them text books and employ enough teachers, including the teachers who will instruct them on the use of these computers rather than trying to say that we want to buy each one of them a laptop. Lastly, I was also very happy with the policy of extending the accessibility of water and electricity to all the rural areas. The Kibaki administration did very well in terms of extending electricity to rural areas. They had what we call matching facility whereby Members of Parliament would make a contribution from the Constituencies Development Fund (CDF) to the Rural Electrification Authority (REA). The REA would then contribute three times what CDF contributed to ensure that electricity is supplied to the rural areas. I hope that this particular facility will be enhanced and continued by this new administration. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to thank you very much and wish the Senators a successful session."
