  • 1 Oct 2019 in National Assembly: All along, we have been talking about children with disabilities and their access to schools. It is extremely difficult for a child with disability to go to school. In this country, you will realise that children with disabilities are usually the last to get into a classroom and the first to drop out of school because the infrastructure in our schools is not conducive for them. So, we cannot talk about harnessing and strengthening ECD centres without talking about children with disabilities. They have a problem in going to school. Infrastructure in ECD centres is not just about chairs and ... view
  • 1 Oct 2019 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, that is the only way we will ensure that we are not excluding children with disabilities from accessing the normal kind of education. That is what inclusive education is all about. It starts with the Early Childhood Development Education (ECD).

All these constitute and contribute to the well-being of a ... view
  • 1 Oct 2019 in National Assembly: When I talk about ECD, we cannot isolate normal children from those living with disabilities.

  • 19 Sep 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, Hon. Speaker. My intervention was in support of the Member for Homa Bay County. I support her Question simply because of what has been happening, especially when it comes to sanitary pads. That is why it is urgent that the Ministry comes out clear. The other day, you saw a girl who committed suicide because of period shame. It is urgent. view
  • 19 Sep 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, Hon. Speaker. I have listened to the Statement by the Chair of the Departmental Committee on Education and Research. It does not add up, even if it comes from the TSC. I take particular interest in this case because this is a child from Bomet County. I have a history with Bomet County. Bomet County is the county that moulded my education. I am a product of Kaplong Girls High School which is in Bomet County. I want this House to know that I had the opportunity of serving in this House with Hon. Cecilia Ng’etich, ... view
