    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I would like to join my colleagues in congratulating Sen. Daniel Karaba, the teacher, for bringing this Motion at this time. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, like most speakers have mentioned, it is such a pity that we are talking about adult education today in Kenya, 50 years after Independence. Something must have gone wrong that we did not develop the necessary guidelines to empower every Kenyan with the right tools of survival in the land. Without education, it is very difficult for people to even improve their own lifestyles in the villages. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, like it has been mentioned, a lot of concentration has gone into the syllabus of primary schools and secondary schools. We have even focused on universities to the extent that every county is going to have a university in the years to come. But we are forgetting something very fundamental; that the development of Kenya today depends on the most productive people who own property and can move things in our land. We talk about Vision 2030 which is not very far from now, and we envisage that our country will be developed and become a strong middle-income nation by that year.
