    "content": "On the Kenya National Examination Council (KNEC), I would have wished that we would have given some tax exemptions to our Kenya Certificate of Primary Education (KCPE) and the Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE) examiners an allowance for marking the exams. This is currently being taxed from last year which I believe is a bit unfair. That is because there are many people within this Government and the private sector who, when they go out from their places of work, they get paid a per diem. Some of them are paid as much as Kshs100,000 per day, but those ones are taxed. The meager earnings by our teachers are taxed. Some of them earn as little as Kshs20,000 when they move out of their homes during the school holidays to marking centers to mark KCSE and KCPE. For a whole month, it is just a payment of Kshs.20,000 which is taxed. We need to give them a tax exemption."
