Kiharu MP Ndindi Nyoro delivered harsh criticism against government plans to reduce basic education funding during a Catholic University of Eastern Africa gathering. The legislator defended educational access as a constitutional guarantee rather than governmental favor. Treasury Cabinet Secretary John Mbadi had previously informed parliamentary committees that fiscal limitations prevent continued support for free schooling programs. Officials reduced secondary school capitation grants from Sh22,244 to approximately Sh16,600 per student because of budget pressures. Mbadi characterized current education funding promises as unrealistic given available resources.

The former Budget Committee chairman rejected treasury explanations and demanded sustained educational investment. Nyoro emphasized that educated populations drive economic development through enhanced workforce capabilities. He urged government departments to eliminate excessive office renovations and redirect resources toward student support. The MP argued that accessible quality education remains fundamental for national progress. Every Kenyan household benefits from educational institutions and deserves governmental backing according to his statements.
