    "content": "THAT, schools in Nyatike are extremely understaffed with the few teachers available, poorly motivated due to non-payment of hardship allowances by the Government; THAT, teachers in the neighbouring sub-counties experiencing the same climatic and economic conditions are receiving hardship allowances for instance; Suba North, Suba South, Kuria East and Kuria West; THAT, basic Government services including issuance of birth and death certificates, and other crucial services have been greatly hampered because of non- availability of Government workers to undertake them; THAT, Nyatike Constituency has been deprived of quality Government services due to inadequate working force occasioned by harsh climatic conditions; THAT, despite Nyatike Constituency having met the criteria used to qualify and gazette it as a hardship area, the Government and the relevant ministry or agencies have not effected to date; THAT, efforts made by the Petitioners to have the matter addressed have not been successful and that the matters raised in this Petition are not pending before any court of law, constitutional or any other legal body; Therefore, your humble Petitioners pray that the National Assembly, through the Public Petitions Committee, recommends to the relevant ministry or agencies to gazette Nyatike West, Nyatike North and Nyatike South sub-counties as hardship areas and make any other appropriate recommendations it deems fit in addressing the circumstance raised in this Petition. And your Petitioners will ever pray. Thank you, Hon. Speaker."
