    "content": "time we thought outside the box and accepted the reality that Kenya is a country of diverse environmental and climatic conditions. That reality should sink in just like it has in terms of equalisation. Hon. Speaker, you are a renowned constitutional lawyer. I want you to reflect on these abuses, the clamour for every area to be classified as a hardship area and for everyone to get hardship allowances vis-à-vis what has happened to equalisation. When shall we have a country united by its diversity? As the Cabinet Secretary comes, let us end this issue once and for all. Over the last few years, the posting of teachers to regions in Northern Kenya has been abused just because of hardship allowances. It is high time Members of the National Assembly accepted that Wajir is different from Baringo, Laikipia is different from Bungoma, and Mombasa is different from Nairobi. This reality must sink in so that our country depends on the strength of its diversity in terms of people and climatic conditions."
