We are still out of College due to the now not ending pay dispute betwen the teachers,no , they are called lecturers (high school mentality dies hard).It is more than ironical that these people who form the cream of the most learned folks earn such low salaries.If I was one of them I would run for Parliament and earn the tax free hundreds of thousand of shillings and not contemplate going to strike.You raise your own salaries if you want whenever you want and nobody will tell you that the Ministry had not budgeted for your pay hikes.There is no Ministry of Parliament over here and totally no red tape.That is sitting at a negotiating table with a minister who already has a formed position,like giving you only 29 or was it 15% pay rise?
It is like ODM Kenya (as if we lived in Uganda) nogetiating with the minister for justice and constitutional AFFAIRS over a new constitution and expecting to get one!How can you floor someone at Referendum and still negotiate with THEM.Why dont you give us your way forward.I hear it is called Jump Starting.I thought Bethwel had already done that and gave the report to the big man.But just like Goldenberg and Anlo Leasing nothing ever comes out of these reports of the so called commissions of Omissions.So the Professor Saitoti and his learned pal are back with enough machinery to shake the whole country.Well I just hope this time you wont be shaken and start telling us that “there comes a time when the nation is greater than a man” or something like that and appear so shaken.
