    "content": "Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker, for protecting me. I was saying that universities in different geographical areas must provide courses relevant to those areas. I would like to see a university started in Marsabit or Garissa or Mandera offer courses relevant to that area, such as livestock development, range management or irrigation. This is so that such a university is seen by the local population as a serious incubator of helping the people there to develop economically. Finally, recently, there was a story in one of our dailies about our universities being administered by seven communities of Kenya and yet, we have 42 communities. I think the university is the last institution to be ethnic-based or tribal-based. In itself, this is against the Constitution. Universities cannot exist in exclusion because many of them are public funded. A public institution must be an equal opportunity employer."
