    "content": " Hon. Deputy Speaker, allow me to support the Petition and thank my colleague, Hon. Sankok. He has brought in an issue that has been all over in the social media and the region we come from. The issue of Kibos School and the children living with disabilities in this country requires urgent attention. I am happy that the Departmental Committee on Labour and Social Welfare will take up this issue and come to the aid of these children. Persons with disabilities in this country are vulnerable. You can imagine these are children with disabilities who are looking for education. It is high time the Committee on Labour and Social Welfare and the County Government of Kisumu looked into this issue. This is an issue in Kisumu County. Persons with disabilities in this country belong to counties, constituencies, wards and villages. It is our responsibility to ensure that whatever the children are going through is checked. We have a copy of the story of this school. It is a school that came first, even before the factory. The fact that the children are being compelled and chased out of the environment that they have known as a school and a home is utter discrimination. Discrimination based on disability is against the law. Allow me to call upon the Committee on Labour and Social Welfare, the Ministry of Labour and Social Protection and the County Government of Kisumu to very quickly put our children into the atmosphere they belong to. Allow me to support the Petition 100 per cent."
