"content": "by the constitutional body, the PSC. The PSC is an independent commission under our Constitution. Recruitment of teachers and management of the Human Resource (HR) affairs of our teachers is the preserve of the Teachers Service Commission (TSC). The TSC is an independent body and one of the constitutional commissions. The rules are very well defined by the Constitution. Unless the Constitution is amended, our lanes are very well defined. My role is defined in terms of developing policy and handing over that policy to the Public Service Commission (PSC). We work independently but interdependently. We do not work in isolation or in silos. We consult from time to time. I believe that the Constitution demands my Ministry and the TSC to work together even if we are independent. Independence does not exist in isolation. We consult from time to time. The Senator for Murang’a has talked about the image of a Chief Executive Officer and not the image of a politician. If I am asked to choose the image that I want, I will choose that of a politician because only a politician understands the problems of this country. It is only a politician that knows people go without food. When I go to Murang’a, I hear the people say ni ` Nyutu. It means I have to take him very seriously. I thank you."
