Bahati Member of Parliament Irene Njoki has announced that she will be rolling out Free Day Secondary Education Programme.
The Programme is a reprieve for parents in Bahati Constituency as the burden they have been facing will be a thing of past.
According to MP Njoki, the Programme shall be rolled out as from January next year 2027.
“We are rolling out our Free Day Secondary Education programme to ease the burden of school fees on families across Bahati Constituency,” she stated.
The Lawmaker spoke when she held a productive session with Secondary School Principals from across the Constituency.
The aim, she pointed out was to fine-tune how the programme will run in schools.
The Legislator was categorical that when she ran for office, applying for a bursary was a gamble for parents.
That many students were sent home because their families couldn’t raise the fees.
A move that she promised to change that under her leadership as area MP.
“Once elected, I reformed the bursary system so that every parent who applies receives support,” she said.
She added that over the past four years, she has ensured investment in improving school infrastructure across Bahati.
According to her, there is now the funding to take the next step and keep every day secondary school student in class.
