"content": "Again, going through this Division of Revenue Bill, the Teachers Service Commission (TSC) is being allocated Kshs160 billion. This is too little. This will only recruit about 5,000 teachers. We know that the teachers’ shortage in this country is around 90,000. We need to recruit a minimum of 20,000 teachers this year. I wish the allocation to TSC could be adjusted upwards to take care of the teachers’ recruitment and harmonization of leave allowances. Teachers are highly discriminated. Other public servants enjoy leave allowance, but the teachers do not. I wish that during the Budget- making process, we consider that so that teachers can get leave and responsibility allowances."
