Strike with Teachers





Teachers burn the effigy of Ibrahim Hussein the Chair of TSC in this picture from the EA Standard

The TEACHERS Strike!

1 week later.

Over 200,000 Teachers not in class, millions of Children at home

The TSC has obtained orders from one Justice Mukunya not to pay teachers...

The media has given the teacher's strike peripheral coverage... and decided to glorify the thieves and their thievery (oh how soon we forget!)

The honourless minister complete with his cabinet friends say we pay in 25 months ( meaning this is different from two+years), take it or leave it or we fire you or we replace you or ...

We are a country of an indifferent culture.

Imagine about kshs 22 Billion gain by two or three of our leaders in the last one month through OIL related corruption…

Join me to demand kshs17 Billion for 240,000 teachers to be paid in one year!

Mkenya,

Kenya has become a "leader kill led society" where such phrases as "leader drink oil" "leader steal all maize" "leader don't pay tax" ' leader deny all knowledge of any wrong done" "leader this evil, leader that rape, leader that murder" are as regular as the setting and rising of the sun

A friend of mine called Peter asked me yesterday, "kawive, you go to these forums, i see you and others talking about rights...can you go and ask kibaki, forget about raila, ask kibaki, 'how does a man with dirty hands wash dirty clothes?' "

I promised to ask. Any takers?

  2. Have you ever been an administrator in a school? Can you imagine having to take care of over 500 kids when teachers have downed their tools? Grow up and face reality. Teachers should go back to class and forget pay in one year. Two and half years are good enough! Let's think of the children.

  3. This is definitely a good call for action and i support teachers fully - they have a right to good remuneration. Please give us direction Kawive - what should we do collectively and/or individually to fight this callousness from our leaders. I await your response.

  4. It is now cristal clear that, this is a banana Republic; where the corrupt are rewarded for hatching successful plots. Those of us who believe in people's power, must really behind the children and force the government to facilitate teachers through decent payment, so that they can resume classes, whether ODM,PNU, UDM, KANU. Must stand to be counted.
