• 29 Jul 2009 in National Assembly: As hon. Saitoti put it, of course, you cannot discuss matters of basic education to the exclusion of higher education. I want to support sentiments expressed by many Members of Parliament that both Ministries are run in the most professional way. I am aware that in the Ministry of Higher Education, Science and Technology, we have come up with several reforms. There are reforms in the science, technology and innovation and many other policies that are coming up. In the Ministry of Education, I think the Minister has a sterling job in various areas. I am very happy with the ... view
• 22 Jul 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, first, I would like to thank the Government Responder for donating this time to me. I want to say that all of us are not oblivious of the fact that in the military, we have what we call “radar system” that detects the presence of an enemy or any foreign material that endangers lives. We should also not forget the fact that the Government of the United States of America (USA) has a system of detecting cyclones, hurricanes and all other bad weather situations in that country. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, in our case, ... view

• 17 Jun 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I have corrected myself. Masinde Muliro University became a fully-fledged university in 2007. We were in the process of making sure that this university has all the laboratory equipment and whatever is necessary for the students to learn. At the moment, we are addressing that problem. That is why we have students out of campus. I assure this House that by October this year, all the equipment will be in place. view
• 17 Jun 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the answer is not contradictory. I just want to confirm that all the development in that university is actually gradual. As we all know, Western Province is highly populous. The demand for vacancies in the university is high. So, we tried to make sure that, at least, students were admitted. Developments will be gradual. I want to assure the hon. Member that everything is happening at that university. By October this year, we will admit the students. There will be no further problems. view
• 17 Jun 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, we have a thorough system of inspecting any college that is supposed to be converted into a full university. So, we have a fully fledged department in our Ministry that takes care of that. That is what we have been doing and we will continue doing so. view
• 17 Jun 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, once again, I want to confirm to the hon. Member that we have a department that deals with inspection. Each and every university has its own Act, except for the fact that at the moment we are trying to consolidate all universities, so that they can operate under one Act. So, each and every university has one Act. The university council and the senate is the one that runs universities. So, we always try to make sure that each and every university has at least the basic requirement for a university to take off. view
