    "content": "It is sad to hear and know that from 1996 to date, there are people still waiting for their compensation and retirement benefits. It is sad because we have the Kenya National Union of Teachers (KNUT), which should be mindful of the teachers’ welfare. The Kenya National Union of Post-Primary Education Teachers (KUPPET) and the Retirement Benefits Authority (RBA) are also there. They should be concerned about the retirement benefits of the teachers. All of us working want to get our benefits when we retire, so that we can continue with life. Those teachers have waited for their benefits from 1996 to date. Those are many years. I am sure majority of them have died while waiting for their benefits. Teachers face a lot of challenges. It is my prayer and hope that the Committee on Education that will handle this Petition will deal with it urgently. I am sure that with the leadership of the able Chair, Sen. Joe Nyutu, they will deal with it because those teachers must be compensated. I thank you and support."
