    "content": "problems in Kenya that can be sorted out because, before you research on a topic, it has to be a problem that you identify. After you identify it, then you start asking yourself what is it that you want to achieve from the problem that you have identified. That is when you come up with objectives. When you research, that is when you have different methodologies and whichever route you take, a conclusion and recommendation has to be done. It has been done at universities but what happens after a paper or topic has been researched on is that it is archived. It is never implemented. With this kind of body, if at all we are researching on a financial or economic field, it is going to help us to realize our Vision 2030 because that how you know if the economy is going down and what makes it go down. You can research on that. If we want to make Nairobi a financial hub, we have to know how to go about it and when we bring all those bodies together; all the universities and tertiary colleges together. We can achieve whatever we want to achieve right now. All that I would like to ask from this Committee is to make sure that they harmonize everything else from different universities; everything else that has ever been researched on to make sure that we have a way to implement it. This is because most of our problems, once researched on--- You can find in every research paper that there are recommendations and what needs to be done. We have seen our students graduating and it is good. But once they are in the field, they are told that they are not qualified enough to perform a job that they performed very well at the university level. With this body, universities will have to pull up their socks. Before students graduate, they must make sure that their students can perform out there. They must make sure that they should publish their papers and what they did when they go for internship. Do they give back what they studied in the universities? If this body has to be there, it will need to be above board. It needs to oversee and oversight all other bodies so that we can have qualified personnel from the universities; our young boys and girls so that they can move this economy further. But please make sure that all the research that has been done is implemented if possible. I support."
