    "content": "Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker for giving me an opportunity to support this Progress Report. I want to start by congratulating the Ad Hoc Committee led by Sen. Sakaja. They have indeed come up with good insights concerning the issue of COVID-19. There is an issue that Sen. Sakaja’s team has come up with concerning education. They have said on the Floor of this House that they really wanted to engage the Cabinet Secretary (CS) for Education regarding education, but they have not been able to reach him. It is unfortunate that at this particular time the CS is not available, because all Cabinet Secretaries should be available, especially during this particular time. It is not about us, the Senate, or about them, but about the Kenyan learners and our children in school. We should impress upon the CS for Education to come before us. He should know that we are working together as a team. When he comes before us, he is not coming as an enemy. He is coming as a partner, so that we discuss and come up with a solution on how we can intervene with regard to education. This will enable our learners not to suffer adversely. As I speak, our learners have suffered adversely. Right now, learning is not really going on in many homes. Learning could be going on in some homes, especially among the well-to-do families that have electronic devices, television sets and families that do not have members with disabilities in their lineage. Therefore, there is the need for the CS to come, so that we engage as a team and see how we can help our learners. 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."
