    "content": "demonstrated by the Report of the Committee, the NG-CDF has done a very good job. I have heard people speak about the 100 per cent transition of pupils from primary schools to secondary schools. That is interesting. In Laikipia North where I come from, we have a whole division without a public school. It is very sad as leaders when go back home and tell people to take children to schools that have never been built by any Government. This year alone, from the NG- CDF money allocated to my constituency, in Sosian Ward, I have started seven new primary schools. You can imagine a six-year-old child travelling for 12 kilometres to access the nearest school in a place infested with wild animals like elephants, buffaloes and others. At the end of the day, we sit in this House or in this Republic and blame certain areas for cattle rustling or banditry. You wonder what children from such areas are supposed to do. I do not mean that they must engage in cattle rustling but imagine a place where insecurity is the order of the day, there are no schools, nobody takes children to school and nobody bothers to build schools for children! What are the children supposed to do? The NG-CDF has come in handy to uplift some of those places and the children to where other Kenyans children have reached."
