• 13 Mar 2019 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I rise to present this Petition, which I had presented in last Session but it lapsed because of time, regarding funding of co-curricular activities in public primary schools. I, the undersigned, on behalf of primary school parents, draw the attention of the House to the following: THAT, Article 43(1)(f) of the Constitution of Kenya and Section 28 of the Basic Education Act, 2013, entitles every Kenyan child to free and compulsory basic education and obligates the state and parents to facilitate access to quality basic education; THAT, co-curricular activities are an integral part of the education ... view

• 12 Mar 2019 in National Assembly: There is no complaint that has been presented to the board. The Report is very clear. You have read it. There is nowhere in this Report where it mentions anyone who has made an official complaint to the board. The Committee is saying that there is a problem, but there is no complainant. The fourth recommendation is that KMPDB should devise strategies to address the shortfall of specialists, ophthalmologists and accredited institutions. The interesting thing is that we are discussing a Report where we are trying to strike out one from the register of only 106, and then we are ... view
