• 12 Jun 2018 in National Assembly: Another point to note is the fact that we have skill gaps in this country in this level of training and the more money we pump into this form of training, the easier it will become for us to achieve Vision 2030 as well as the Big Four Agenda that will propel the economy to another level. view

• 12 Jun 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady. I am the Member for Funyula, distinct from the gentleman from Kisumu Central. As much as I understand the rationale for the cuts here and there, it is extremely unfortunate to deny universities adequate funding. Those of us who live in this country have seen a litany of challenges at the university education because of inadequate funding in terms of salaries, funds for research and generally for improvement of facilities.

It would be a tragedy to take another 50 years having not achieved the basics of this country. It is time we refocus.
