"content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, countries which have progressed have kept their children in school up to the age of 18 years. The national cohesion that we are talking about can be achieved by ensuring that before children move to polytechnics or universities, we introduce a comprehensive national youth service which can integrate all our children from all the counties, in a programme where they are able to see how the new Kenya looks like. I think that is what we should be focusing on. Let us not be too negative, shy or lack courage. Really, when you think of how far we can move with that little imagination, it really amazes me that there are some of us who are thinking that, perhaps, maybe, in 20 years time from now, we might be able to look at this thing. The time to move is now. When you look at the young girls that we have, and we are talking about promoting their education, how do we do it when we condemn them to leave school at Standard VIII at the age of 13 or 14 years? What is it that you want them to do? We have the Ministry of Education and a variety of other proposals that can energize this country."
