Westland MP Hon Tim Wanyonyi has called for intergrated learning for PWD children in different parts of the country.
In it’s 40th year, the Rotary club of Nairobi annually hosts a rally for physically and mentally challenged children at the same grounds.
The event this year brought together 7,000 children from 40 different schools and homes in and outside Nairobi for fun, games and entertainment.
Speaking during the event that provides a forum for interaction among the children and also with Rotarians and other prominent PWDs, the Westlands MP commended Rotary Club for the continuity of the invaluable programme.
He also made a clarion call to the ministry of education to encourage the establishment of integrated learning of PWD children. He added that such a model will enhance independence and acquisition of developmentally advanced skills for the PWD children.
The legislator further asked the private sector and government to provide an environment for Persons living with Disability to access opportunities and be employed.
WESTLANDS MP Hon Tim Wanyonyi and Nominated MP David Ole Sankok were the chief guests at this year’s Rotary Sunshine Rally at Jamhuri Show Grounds.
Each Rotarian contributes Kshs 1000 towards this annual event.

Educating the physically and mentally changed is good gesture!
However, the education of the youths in Kenya, particularly, those youths coming from financially challenged poor Kenyans is under ASSAULT by foreign based local banks that are very eager to advance heavy loans to those academically aspiring youths whose families are struggling to help them achieve the university level education!
These highly motivated young Kenyans get loaded with bank loans which they are unable to repay after graduation, due to the fact that there are no local jobs geared towards using their skills! 99.9% of these young debtors are now unemployed!
IT IS VERY DIFFICULT TO UNDERSTAND WHO in KENYA is CRAFTING THE KENYAN EDUCATION POLICIES AND THE RATIONALE BEHIND THE POLICIES IN WHICH THE FUTURE GENERATIONS OF THE COUNTRY ARE LOADED WITH DEBTS WITHOUT MEANS TO PAY BACK THE DEBTS AT THE END OF THE COLLEGE EDUCATION!!
IS THIS NOT THE BEST METHOD for DESTROYING FUTURE KENYAN LEADERS TO ENSURE THAT THEY ARE PERMANENTLY DEPENDENT ON AND BEGGING for PERMANENT FOREIGN AIDS!
THESE FOREIGN AIDS ARE NOT CHEAP BY ANT STRETCH OF IMAGINATION BECAUSE THERE ARE LONG AND PERMANENT STRINGS ATTACHED TO THEM! THOSE STRINGS ARE PUBLIC RESOURCES AND TAXATION!! FOREIGN AIDS ARE BACK-DOORS TO looting of local resources and LOADING COUNTRIES WITH FOREIGN DEBTS!!
Recently, Uhuru Kenyatta and his team visited Cuba which has been under USA, Europe, Canada and Australia economic blockage since 1959! This small Island tightened its belts and managed to produce well educated and informed population, including doctors. Some of these doctors are now working in Kenya after Uhuru’s visit!! Has the president of Kenya investigated how Cuba managed to salvage and educate its population after the Western Capitalists economic embargo?
Before 1956, Cuba was cesspool of human exploitation by plantation owners, gambling, casinos, prostitution were in every corner, including everything that is now being promoted in Kenya and other Sub-Saharan African countries.
The foreign elites engaged in these exploitative activities use human greed as assets and are able to penetrate the local citizens consumed with poverty and greed to promote these illicit activities to the population at large!
IT IS VERY SAD TO WATCH!
