"content": "Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. I rise to support the amendments especially the inclusion of the county executive in charge of education. The reason we saw it fit to include the county executive in charge of education was because education issues should be seamlessly joined together. The county governments and the national Government are serving the same citizens of this country. The fact that Hon. Wamalwa was indicating that we exclude the county governments will not augur well with the running of education in the counties. The County Education Secretary is in charge of Early Childhood Development (ECD) and polytechnics and, therefore, the need to have the secretary in the board. As you know, the national Government is in charge of running the policy on ECD and polytechnics at the national Government. It is important and paramount to have the county executive in charge of education to be a member of the County Education Board and Sub-county Education Board."
