    "content": "Okay, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. Education is a social equalizer. Some of us would be nondescript herdsmen in the village if we did not go to school. But because of the good education we had - the good engineering degrees we hold - we are now able to find ourselves in those privileged positions. It is no accident that countries that seek to develop fast, direct their resources at ensuring a highly educated and informed citizenry. I want to take over from where my colleague, hon. Kabando wa Kabando has left. I think the officials of the Ministry need to come out and tell us who is holding them captive. That is because what we see are people who are unable to do anything to help our children. I read the Holy Bible and in there is a book written by Prophet Jeremiah when he was crying about the destruction of Jerusalem. It is called “Lamentations”. I hope the officials at the Ministry of Education are not hoping to rewrite the book of Lamentations instead of taking actions that are going to help our children.
