    "content": "Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I thank the Member of Parliament for Tigania West for finding it fit to bring this Petition on behalf of the people of Tigania West. I dare say that this affects a large population of Meru County where a number of our schools are facing challenges yet they have not been considered in the special programmes. Whenever we go to the State Department of Special Programmes to have these schools considered in the hardship programme, they have always said that Meru County is not a county that qualifies for this kind of support. I say this today bearing in mind that we have very special guests from Tigania West who have been on a benchmarking tour in Kisumu and Mombasa to see how the programmes are effected in those other counties. This is important because we have been seeking support from Red Cross and various donors who have supported teachers, students and pupils. So, this is a proper Petition that has been brought to this House by Hon. Karithi. I believe that the concerned organs of this Government are going to ensure that this is taken up and Tigania West students, pupils and teachers are taken care of. Thank you."
