"content": "A few weeks or a month ago, I sought a similar Statement, but my Statement was directed to the Committee on Labour and Social Welfare. I see Sen. Cherargei has brought this Statement and directed it to the Committee on National Security and Foreign Relations. The issues that I raised and which are still outstanding are basically two. One, a clear scheme of service for village administrators. It will be remembered that in this House, we have previously dealt with the issue of Early Childhood Development Education (ECDE) teachers, where different counties have been implementing different schemes of service for ECDE teachers. The same challenge faced by ECDE teachers is being encountered by village administrators. There is need for clarity and harmonization of a scheme of service for village administrators across the board. This is such that, if you are a village administrator in Kitui County, then you have been engaged under the same terms of engagement with a village administrator in Makueni County. The second issue is a clear career progression path for these village administrators. It should be clear to a person who gets into a job as village administrator, that through hard work and additional education, one day they could find themselves in a position of a subcounty administrator. However, in our situation, once you are recruited as a village administrator, it is the beginning and end of your career.
