Kiharu Member of Parliament Ndindi Nyoro has suggested combining NG-CDF funds with national government education resources to make senior secondary school education free.
Speaking on Tuesday, February 10, 2026, Nyoro pointed out that both governors and members of parliament have a role to play in the allocation of public funds for education.
“In Kenya, you know, we have NGCDF, the CDF. We have money that goes to our governors, called equitable share, and then we have the national government. All of us participate in education matters,” Ndindi said.
The Kiharu MP added that with four million students enrolled in senior secondary schools, the government would need at least Ksh30 billion to cover the costs of providing free education at this level.
“So my proposal has been very simple. Kenya has three to four million learners in senior secondary schools. We need only 30 billion Kenya shillings to make senior secondary education completely free, including the lunch programme,” Nyoro added.
He further explained that part of the funding could come from constituency-level allocations, suggesting that each constituency contribute to the nationwide initiative.
“And I am proposing that out of the money that we get at the constituency level called CDF, the country get 10 billion shillings from there. That is 30 million Kenyan shillings from every constituency, including Kiharu. So we will have 10 billion shillings from CDF,” he said.
