"content": " Hon. Speaker, pursuant to the provisions of Standing Order 44(2)(c), I request for a Statement from the Chairperson of the Departmental Committee on Education regarding primary schools in Turkana Central Constituency which have been submerged due to rising water levels in Lake Turkana. In recent years, the effects of climate change have become more evident with countries experiencing extreme weather patterns. One such consequence has been the rising waters of Lake Turkana, which have displaced settlements and submerged several primary schools. As a result, thousands of learners have been left without access to education. The affected schools, with a total enrolment of 1,442 learners are: Natole (406), Katula (202), Merier (210), Nang’olpus (314), and Ekwar (310). Unfortunately, many of the pupils have been forced to either transfer to other schools or drop out to engage in work, disrupting their education. To partly mitigate these effects, the National Government Constituencies Development Fund (NG- CDF) has constructed five (5) classrooms for Ng’imuriae Primary School, another institution affected by submersion. However, this intervention remains inadequate as the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organisation (UNESCO) recommended three-kilometre school accessibility requirement is still unmet. This significantly limits access to education as envisaged by the Constitution in Article 43(1) and threatens literacy levels in the region. It is against this background that I request for a Statement from the Chairperson of the Departmental Committee on Education and Research on the following: 1. Immediate intervention to ensure the continuity of education for displaced learners at Natole Comprehensive Primary School and other affected schools. 2. Report on the assessment conducted by the Ministry of Education to determine the extent of damage and the feasibility of rebuilding affected schools in safer locations; 3. Plans to establish temporary learning centres or mobile classrooms to ensure uninterrupted education for displaced learners. 4. Measures by the Ministry to provide the necessary infrastructure, equipment and school feeding programme for the affected primary schools, given that livelihoods in the region have also been severely impacted. 5. Long-term strategies in place to enhance climate resilience in school infrastructure within Turkana County and other vulnerable regions. Thank you, Hon. Speaker."
