"content": "One of my favourite clauses during the Referendum campaigns in many parts of the country that I went to was Clause 130, which we now call Section 130, which requires that Cabinet Secretaries, read Government, will be appointed taking into consideration, ethnic and regional balancing. This is supposed to reflect the entire structure of the Government. This was not one of the sections that we said should be left hanging. It is a section that came into effect when the President promulgated the new Constitution on 27th August, 2010. This means that people from the Coast, where I come from, who have been marginalized, particularly in the education sector, must under the new Constitution, be given proper positions within the HELB management. We expect ethnic and regional balancing in this Board and in the management of HELB. You will find that many of our students who apply to HELB from Garsen Constituency and many other places get negative response. They are told that they cannot get these loans and yet, when you try to find out, people tell you that âthere is a way in which we can assist youâ. This means that if you know some people there, then students are given this support."
