    "content": "Hon. Speaker, one of the 12 students affected is Dan Oluoch Owino, he was a fourth year student and was expelled. He was remaining with only one semester to conclude his undergraduate studies. Dan Oluoch Owino is a poor son of a peasant farmer, who is my constituent. There are other 11 students who were suspended for two, three or four semesters. The names are as follows: Arthur Ogweno; suspended for two semesters with a fine of Kshs30,000; Odera Anyango Beatrice; Omondi Jilali Ochieng’; Odhiambo Justus Onyango; Steve Rundu Olweny; Timothy Otieno Odeny; Hillary Amolo; Geoffrey Onyango; Onyango Collins; Mark Owuor and to do some spicing, they threw in the name of George Makau. Hon. Speaker, Sir, this is a serious issue and I would want the Chair of the Committee to make a follow up with the Kenyatta University Administration. This university has been known for its draconian measures, particularly under the current Vice-Chancellor. If we start politicizing an institution of higher learning such as a university which is funded by taxpayers’ money; we try to politicize the management of a public university by introducing tribal politics, we are sowing seeds of rebellion."
