    "content": "the private programmes, that there are children who do better than teachers in terms of livelihood. They drive into school and can eat three meals in the next hotel. Teachers do not have that. Unfortunately, at a time that they demand this, here is the Government so insensitive that it can put aside Kshs53 billion for laptops. It is just like a family where a father decides to buy a bicycle when there is no food in the house. It is not fair or good. Teachers must and should be paid now and not another time. This is because teachers will change this country. Let the laptops come, but teachers must be paid first. Madam Temporary Speaker, teachers not only offer their time in school, but also their lives to the children that they teach. They are the unspoken counsellors in the village. These are the spiritual guides of the community. They are not just there for a job, but, in fact, on a divine service. The Senate is the House of equilibrium, where the sense of this country rests. Let us not play with the lives of our children. Let us not allow anybody to let our children die because lack of education is worse than physical or clinical death. A day that a child spends outside school is a lifetime death. Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker."
