    "content": "There are two areas that I want to bring up and issue a caution. The first one is on youth polytechnics. The Ministry of Education has declared that everybody in Class Eight goes to Form One. That means there is nobody going to a youth polytechnic. If you get to Form Four, the Ministry has declared that if you score grade “E”, you go to a technical training institute. So, where is the place for the village youth polytechnics we are allocating Khs2 billion? It means that, in future, we are placing money on something that is going to be non-existent. That is one caution that I want to raise. As we allocate Kshs2 billion for purposes of conditional grants for youth polytechnics in villages, we need to know that the youth polytechnics have no catchment wing. There is no source of students. Their source has been closed by the 100 per cent transition and by the technical training institutes that we are coming up with."
