There are a number of issues as the new Cabinet Secretary comes in. Of course, a lot of praise has been showered on him, but there are a lot of expectations in the sector.

Education is a social service that is very essential and requires absolute unity of the stakeholders in the sector. Therefore, we expect Prof. Magoha to provide good leadership and unite the sector so that it can deliver on the expectations of Kenyans of delivering one of the best equitable quality education for all. To deliver in this sector and from the experience of CSs who have succeeded, there must be intensive and continuous consultations. We believe Prof. Magoha possesses that.

There are a number of challenges in the sector that need immediate address by the CS. This is a sector that receives huge funding and attracts business interests and corruption.

We have just finished Nairobi and Kisumu. What has come out from the fund managers are basically the delay and the trouble they get from the untimely disbursement of NG-CDF.

The NG-CDF is the best thing that has happened. I am a product of the NG-CDF having received a lot of support in form of bursary from Hon. Dr. Wilfred Machage who was my MP in Kuria at that time. The NG-CDF has helped many people and children in bursaries and the schools built by the NG-CDF from the rural areas where we come from.

Having said that, and looking at the list of nominees before the House, it reflects the face of Kenya. This list has lived according to the Constitution of this country that looks at regional representation. It also looks at the issue of gender. This list is about 50-50. In the list of seven, we have three ladies and four gentlemen. That is almost 50:50 ratio. I commend the NG-CDF team that has brought this list.
