Nominated MP Dr. David Ole Sankok has called on political leaders to ensure people living with disability are not discriminated when it comes to education scholarships.
Speaking at Kiamaina primary school over the weekend during the 5th graduation ceremony for students sponsored by the Bahati NG-CDF to study various courses at the Rift Valley Institute of Business Studies, Sankok said education should be for all.
“People living with disability too should be able to access education. We should not discriminate them even in scholarships and bursaries,” he said.
He lauded Bahati legislator Kimani Ngunjiri for his support to the needy to access education.
“Hon. Ngunjiri has always stood up above the rest of leaders in his love to help the poor,” he said.
On his part, Ngunjiri said that it was his vision to assist at least a youth in every homestead in his Bahati Constituency by funding them to acquire life skills.
According to the legislator, Bahati NG-CDF has already helped train over 6,000 youths to get middle level training.
