"content": "Regrettably, students in private schools are not having their examination money paid. This is an injustice that cannot be allowed. It is discrimination of the highest order. The President said that examination fees would be paid for all Kenyan students. I do not know why the implementers of that programme have chosen to discriminate against students in private schools. These are Kenyan children. I believe that the parents who are taking their children to private schools are sacrificing. The people in the private schools are also supplementing Government efforts in providing education to all Kenyans. So, the policy should be changed. It is immoral. It is not right to deny those children in private schools examination fees. It does not make sense. How much savings would be made from denying payment of examination fees for those children? We budget for all children. We do not count the number of children in public schools. So, where does this money eventually go because even the students in private schools are catered for, and then when it comes to implementing, that money is not sent? The students in private schools are forced to make payments for the examination."
