    "content": "Due to the good things that I am talking about, I should be added two minutes so that in future we can have these improvements. Lastly, I want to speak about education. Hon. Duale talked about people scoring D- (Minus) and D+ (Plus). It is, indeed, important. People who score D+ (Plus) can study for a degree and become professors. If you score D+ (Plus), there is a provision where you can study for a certificate and from there, you can get a diploma, a degree and then a PhD. I know very many professors that were primary school teachers. There is nothing wrong. It does not mean that when you score that D+ (Plus) you cannot get a degree. As long as you have done it gradually, you can make it. If you failed in Mathematics, you can do a bridging course. If you got low grades, you can study for a certificate and upgrade. I want Kenyans to know that it is not difficult. You can score a D+ (Plus) at a lower level but you can become a professor. It is possible. We want to remove this narrative which Hon. Duale was putting across to mislead Kenyans. People who scored D+ (Plus) can upgrade from a certificate to a diploma, a degree and can become professors. I thank you and I support."
