for senior schools. That way, our schools will not experience the kind of challenges we are undergoing now. Moving forward, we hope that things will be better than they have been before. The other question was by Sen. (Dr.) Oburu on losing cases. Out of five cases we have had in court, we won two and lost three. When you go to a court of law, sometimes you win and sometimes you do not. We are putting up a serious fight and we are hopeful.

Therefore, we cannot say no, but as you know, it is mainly the MPs who are able ...

When I received the Question from this House last week on Friday, I sought a response from Daystar University on the issues raised by the Member.
