    "content": "If we go to matters of education, that sector that is very dear to my heart is being handled incompetently; we are not getting full value for our money as Kenyan taxpayers. We have seen the laptop tender was mishandled by the Ministry of Education which is a huge shame and embarrassment. Our children were promised laptops but they have not got them. The tender was awarded in a terrible manner that it has had to be cancelled. The Cabinet Secretary, Prof. Kaimenyi did not work with the Departmental Committee on Education, Research and Technology. He showed complete contempt throughout the process as we tried to get information; as we tried to raise concern about that laptop project which is a key signature in Jubilee manifesto. He did not work with us. Instead, we should get rid of Prof. Kaimenyi who sits outside this House and earns more money than the Speaker. If we got rid of somebody like that and hired a very competent educationist in this House and add them a minimal responsibility allowance, they could do that job competently as prior members of the Cabinet did when they served in this The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
