"content": "Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. I rise to give a vote of confidence to this Motion because it touches on the lives of Kenyans, namely, our young children. We know very well that a nation that invests in its young ones invests in the future properly. Hon. Abdullahi has just enforced what is the norm because we know very well that free education is now a constitutional right for every Kenyan. It is not something that this House will so much engage in debating. The Government should take seriously any right that is already enshrined in the Constitution, when it comes to our children. The Children Act is also very clear. In this country, we are at a time when everybody knows his or her rights very candidly. In this case, this Motion is only to enforce the constitutional obligation and responsibilities that are enshrined in the Constitution as far as education is concerned. As I continue in this debate, I want to say that as we increase this money, we also want to take note of the corruption in the Ministry of Education.
