MWINGI After carrying an exercise of fact finding on the vulnerability of the students who scored 300 marks and above, I, as the member of parliament for Mwingi North, in consultation with my committee of the NG-CDF, have decided the following:-
1. Almost all the students who scored those marks are needy except about 30 cases. After a bit of filtering a total of 527 students have been found particularly needy and deserve to be supported to join form 1 in 2019. Out of this 133 are either orphaned or single parented or half orphaned.
2. All the 133 special group category will each get 11,000 and the remaining 394 will get 9500 each. The parents and the guardians are expected to augment the bursary so that the students can have a smooth stay in the various schools. This will be a total of 5,206,000 that will be deducted from the 30,000,000 that I had earmarked for bursaries for 2018/2019 leaving approximately 25,000,000 that will be shared through a public participation exercise as we did last year.
3. That these beneficiaries will not be discriminated during the public participation and are eligible for further bursary award as this is considered as a token of appreciation for the efforts they made in the class 8 examinations. As a matter of fact this is a gift from myself to tell them kudos for their work well done.
4. Because we have not received any disbursement from the treasury for 2018/2019, the cheques will not be ready in the immediate and even if we had the money the process of writing the cheques would take time. I that case I have written letters of commitment to the various institutions which can be collected from my constituency office in Kyuso.
For the other possible beneficiaries that will be determined by the public participation I have written letters to all principals in Mwingi North and other neighboring secondary schools to exercise patience till we distribute the bursary funds
Kindly pass on this information to all the concerned parents and students
