    "content": "areas that have been marginalised over the years, and areas where we need equity and equality, face. That is the scenario. I know most of the time we give examples of northern Kenya. I come from a place that is similar to northern Kenya except that northern Kenya is covered by sun and my area is covered by water. If you do not put up a school at Remba Island, it means that the pupils from Remba Island have to ride on a boat for one hour to the closest island, Mfangano Island. Only recently I set up the first ever school since man was made by God in Sukru Island. Before that, the pupils in Sukru Island would have to use a boat to the main land. Unfortunately, at one time the boat capsized and some people died. If you insist that the student to teacher ratio must be 40 to 1, then it means that one teacher will be teaching from Class One to Class Eight. That is against their constitutional right of access to education, equity and equality. I will be challenging that policy, both in Parliament and court because it goes against marginalised communities. With those few remarks, I want to thank the Hon. Member and say that I am happy with the court on the gender rule and Parliament must act."
