"content": " Hon. Speaker, I am a mother and a Member. This information that the Chair has shared, for example, on the radio stations - I heard him mention Radio Maria in Murang’a County - is not with the people on the ground. For example, I do not have this information. I have been trying to search for where I can keep my children busy when they are at home, but I do not have information. The information could be on paper, but we would like to have a thoroughly explained breakdown of that information. We know that in primary school, there is Grade One up to Grade Eight. So, if I am to tune in to Radio Maria, what time should I switch on to get what is of value for my child who is in Grade Two? We also have children in secondary schools. I heard the Chair saying that if COVID-19 pandemic stays on, they will decide whether KCSE or KCPE will be done. Our children have lost three months. We normally say necessity is the mother of invention. The Ministry must be innovative to know how they will reach out to candidates who are in Class Eight and Form Four to get them prepared. Otherwise, they will extend the term to next year. I have also noted that there is an assumption that all Kenyans can afford a radio and batteries. At this time, people have no food on the table."
