"content": "Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I stand to support Sen. Mercy Chebeni on the issue of defilement of girls in Moi Girls’ School, Nairobi. This is quite unfortunate. I call upon the relevant authorities to ensure that they carry out a speedy investigation on this matter and bring it to a close. Madam Temporary Speaker, at the same time, I encourage the Cabinet Secretary (CS) of Education, Science and Technology, Ms Amina Mohammed to stop making blanket emotional statements on this matter. This is a matter of serious concern. The other day, she banned all citizens and everyone who has no Teachers Service Commission (TSC) number from interacting with school girls. This is not the way to go. I believe that in a school set up, we have the teaching and non-teaching fraternity. Therefore, one cannot just wake up one the morning and ban all the non-teaching members of the school communities from interacting with the girls. This was just a unique case that unfortunately happened. Therefore, we should not use this case to come up with emotional solutions. We should have tangible solutions that will help sort out the issue of defilement of girls in schools for prosperity."
