    "content": "that schools are required to have these fire extinguishers. In fact, it is a law that even in homes and cars we should have those portable fire extinguishers. However, the kinds of fires that gut schools go beyond the ability of the small fire extinguishers to put them down. Therefore, this is a two-pronged approach. There must be a policy in the Government to enable the county governments - since that is a devolved function - develop the response capacity to deal with fires. About two weeks ago, Kibuye Market, one of the biggest open air markets in Africa, was gutted by fire. The fire ambulances arrived an hour or so later and could not put out the fire, since it did not have enough water. You can just imagine the loss. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, this is an issue that should be taken seriously. Schools could have those small extinguishers to extinguish fire on a desk or in a latrine, but they cannot be used during fires in dormitories."
