"content": "We should not allow some individuals to come from nowhere. When we were appointing the current Cabinet Secretary, most of the guys who were in Nairobi praised him so much, but some of us are disappointed. In fact, two weeks ago, he was in Kapenguria, West Pokot and was unable to visit schools. He visited about two schools and disappeared because he noted the mess going on and people were preparing to ask him questions. When we talk about the CBC, I have some children in private and public schools. Those in public schools are suffering. The only people who are enjoying are the rich who have their children in private schools. A child is asked to go to school in gumboots. In some of our Arid and Semi-Arid Lands (ASALs), children walk barefoot. They do not have shoes. Then, you tell such a kid to come with gumboots. Where is he going to get money to buy a gumboot yet he is unable to get that attire or shoe that can support him to walk around? Then again, there are the aprons they are told to come with. They buy new aprons for them to work. Because of time, I just want to say that we, as MPs in this honourable House, are elected to bring good things to the people who trusted us. Let us not be rushing. We are discussing major and important issues, especially pertaining to education. That is so that we can save the future of the education of this country. I thank you."
