    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I rise to agree with the petitioners and mostly thank the Chairman of KUPPET, the Member for Emuhaya. Teachers have stagnated for long and I served as a teacher one time. Some teachers have stagnated in the same job group for as many as 10 or 15 years. In the last financial year, Members of the Departmental Committee on Education and Research managed to get about Ksh1 billion, which was a drop in the ocean, to assist about 20,000 teachers to get promoted. In fact, the petitioners are asking for Ksh1 billion which is quite lethargic noting that thousands have stagnated and the current population of teachers in this country is about 400,000. So, we really need money. In subsequent budgets or any other budgetary processes, these teachers will need not less than Ksh3 to Ksh4 billion for them to be promoted adequately and well compensated. Thank you, Hon Speaker. I support."
