"Kenya to become a knowledge economy by 2030" "Government to invest billions in technocity after acquiring 5,000 acres of land" "Kenya, one of the leading destinations for ICT innovation" I wonder why the President did not offer a jembe, kilo of maize seed or saw instead of laptops to the Class 1s? This is a forum whose aim is the development of ICT which then justifies my 100% emphasis on the same.

There are quite simply bigger fish to fry and ICT is simply an enabler, a conduit and an option at increasing efficiency not a silver bullet that will solve all our problems.

Looking forward to seeing children from primary school level access technology though the promise need to be very well thought out for maximum benefit efficiently and effectively. On the blurring and slurring, from the little I have learnt from life, it is unfortunate when one ridicule others based on their inabilities and deficiencies especially those that one cannot do anything about becoz they arose from ailments. Am not a prophet of doom but watch this space as what goes around comes around. I mean no offence as I say this but we must also defend those with some forms of disabilities or inabilities beyond their control.

Refreshing faces and speeches there after years of kibaki's drab, slurring and blurring ...
But qn- so what will happen to the children in class 2 upwards who will not get the treasured laptop? Or does educ start with the uk administration's digital intake? Walking into a digital divide, or is it? Or will the schools be required to equip the rest of the have-nots? Who betwn a class 1 and 8 pupil most needs a laptop?
Anyway, i dnt mind the jubilee gifts as long as my taxes dnt go through the roof...
