"content": "This Government is able to allocate money for digital toys called laptops. That money could be invested into free secondary education instead of those toys that nobody knows where they are. Students from marginal counties are suffering. The drought is biting and very few are going to secondary school this year, especially the ones joining Form One. Many students are dropping out due to lack of school fees and difficult conditions brought about by drought. I hope the Government will do something about this. I call upon the Budget and Appropriations Committee to allocate enough money for education, particularly to enable free secondary education to be realized. As a Parliament, we have a duty to ensure that, that happens, as much as we call upon the Executive to implement the task force report. I call upon the Budget and Appropriations Committee as well as the Education, Research and Technology Committee to make it a priority."
