"content": " Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, if my brother was a little bit patient, probably, he would understand what I am talking about. I am a Kenyan, a Member of Parliament as well as a Minister in the Cabinet and above all, I am the Minister for Justice, National Cohesion and Constitutional Affairs. I know that this Constitution gives every Kenyan under Article 41(2)(d) the right to strike. I believe that the teachers have every right under our Constitution to strike. As the Constitution gives you the right to strike, it equally gives you the responsibility to enjoy and exercise that right within the confines of the law. We were all very disturbed at the scenes of barbaric violence that we saw; we saw principals being stripped and kicked like thieves at the market place. We want to urge teachers that, indeed, they have the right to enjoy their rights under Article 41 but they must do so in a decent, dignified and lawful manner."
