    "content": "We should recognise that they have other talents and other areas where they can excel and these are areas that can help them and help our country at large. We also have a habit of recognising those who perform well, which is not very good. I equate that to our political system. In the old Constitution, presidential candidates who did not succeed used to get parliamentary positions. In our academic system, if you fail there is no provision for those who are not doing well. It is like winners take it all. I believe that our Government should come up with a system where those who do not pass their exams will get technical training that will enable them to be useful to themselves and to the nation. Hon. Deputy Speaker, I support."
