Elachi","speaker_title":"","speaker":{"id":13115,"legal_name":"Beatrice Elachi","slug":"beatrice-elachi"},"content":"Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I also want to join our colleagues in the Senate to thank the Ministry of Education, especially the Cabinet Secretary, Dr. Fred Matiang’i. As parents, we are proud of him because he has brought sanity back to the education sector. We would like him now to rein in on the universities. Furthermore, we would like to see children going to good schools. Those who have performed well either from public or private be admitted to national schools without discrimination. Finally, I want to tell parents to prepare and not to spend much on Christmas because your children will be joining secondary school in January. I know they are not used to this. However, we must salute the CS, Dr. Fred Matiang’i, for bringing sanity in the education sector."}
