Another issue that messed up this country was the police recruitment where he wanted to break the law and allow the recruits whose recruitment had been questioned to report for training. There is also the question of the Ethics and Ant-Corruption Commission. As I speak, a committee has been formed to look into the matter. At the moment, some members have already resigned. I hope the other issues will be sorted, so that EACC can start working.

There is also the President’s trip to the United States of America, where we have been told that the President was turned back. We are not sure what happened. The other issue is the question of the recent appointments, which I will call reckless. The President could have appointed bright young people who can take this country forward.

As we head to the recess, as Members of Narok, we are going to look into the question of the Mau evictions. The Government will explain to us why it is burning houses and trying to make some of us look like convicts.

Hon. Deputy Speaker, thanks for the opportunity. I was just wondering because you have been calling names and nobody is there. I am rising on a point of order on a matter that is very serious and happening now in Narok. There was a flood in Narok yesterday evening.

Thank you, hon. Deputy Speaker. I wish to voice my concern, especially on the issue of Motions. Sometimes we deal with Bills and amendments which are very important. The amendments to the Kenya National Examination Council (Amendment) Bill are very important. Most of us would have wanted to make serious contributions but we were being given two or three minutes because there are other Motions that have been lined up for debate. I am one of the Members who have never brought a Motion to this House, the only reason being where Motions end up. They end up in the ...

Thank you, hon. Deputy Speaker, for giving me the opportunity to actually make a serious contribution to this particular Bill. I wish to second the Bill and thank hon. Kang’ata for thinking about it. Education is very fundamental. If your population is not educated, what you have are potential criminals who will look for other avenues of survival. They will always look at the criminal element of making ends meet.

The reason why most of our students cannot access education is basically because of fees. We say that we have free primary education and free secondary education, but the truth is that they are not free. So many students are dropping out of school in primary and secondary and even university for lack of school fees. The country is in a poor state. Our citizens are not rich. They cannot afford education or send their children to the best universities in this country or the best universities abroad because of lack of that basic need which is school fees. When ...
