    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I support my friends. I do not believe that we have realised the gravity of the closure of the schools in north eastern region. The cause of Al Shabaab is being enhanced by the closure of those institutions. The real determination of how to defeat Al Shabaab is through education. If we close the institutions that are supposed to educate people to stop joining an evil institution such as Al Shabaab, then where is the answer for the future? What we would have liked to hear from my Chairperson is that there will now be 40 or 50 individuals from the Administration Police Unit who will be stationed in that institution. There will be a garrison that will be constructed near the University of Garissa. Transport will be provided to students and staff. An additional funding such as an equivalent of so much money has been given to provide the walls that the institutions have been asked to build to enhance security. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, honestly, I believe that the Chairperson must emphasize that. If necessary, let us call the Cabinet Secretary for Education, Science and Technology to this House to discuss security in our education institutions. I do not think we will get sufficient answers at this point from the Chairperson of the Committee on Education."
