Tabichi, while speaking on Sunday at Kemera ward in Kitutu Masaba constituency, said parents should not condone their children to drop school.  

Mr Tabichi said despite the fact that many parents are poor, education must be given priority.

He said education should not look expensive to parents when their children are in school because once the children excels in studies they will harvest good fruits.

"My plea to parents in Nyamira county is that let them not feel bad when they pay school fees to their children. The fruits of education will be enjoyed when one excels in studies to get a decent job to help his or her family and the society," he noted. 

Tabichi assured that he will continue giving back to the society because that has been his desire. 

The science teacher, who has been giving 80% of his monthly income to help the poor, challenged school going children to dedicate their time and work hard for the sake of realizing good results.
