"content": "Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I thank Sen. (Dr.) Musuruve for bringing this Statement. I salute the teachers of the world wherever they are; those in ECD, primary, secondary and tertiary institutions. We are all a product of teachers. Each one of us, irrespective of our professions, are a product of men and women who nurtured and made us what we are today. We salute our teachers and thank them for the sacrifices they continue to make in nurturing our children and shaping the destiny of our country and of the world. I take this opportunity to decry the low levels of compensation that we give teachers. Well not just in this country but around the world, teachers are one of the most underpaid professionals. I hope that going forward, we will continually improve the terms and conditions of service for our teachers at all levels. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I also take this opportunity to particularly highlight the poor remuneration of teachers in ECD sector. Just as Sen. (Dr.) Musuruve has said, there is need to improve the compensation."
