    "content": "(Sen. (Prof.) Kamar): Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir, for giving me the opportunity. I rise as the vice Chairperson of the Committee on Education, Communication and Technology to allay fears that we do not fear Cabinet Secretary (CS), Prof. Magoha. We expect him on 19th and there are a number of issues that we will deal with. If this House would like him to address the whole House, we will, in fact, invite him to come here so that the whole House can raise those issues. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I also agree with Sen. Khaniri’s Statement that there are a lot of grey areas in this system. I assure this House that our voice was heard during the time of CS Amb. Amina. We had a session with her and we told her that we do not need to rush issues. We know very well that 8-4-4 was not rushed. It took two years after the curriculum was ready for every sector to discuss it. I remember this because I had just joined the university in 1996. We discussed how students will exit and join the university. We had our curriculum that had to be tested and examined across the board so that the Committee of vice chancellors was able to discuss. What we do not know is who the stakeholders that have looked at this curriculum are. We have a few questions that we raised as a Committee to the then CS who agreed with us at the time that there is need for delay. I am sure that if Sen. (Prof.) Ongeri will get a chance, he will touch on that. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate."
