"content": "Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. What we need to realise is that facts and figures do not lie. This is something that involves 52,338 Kenyans who gave their sweat, time and allowed their brains to be “sipped” by future generations. These were teachers of this country. A society is judged by how it treats its teachers and bearers of knowledge. Facts and figures do not lie. In 1997 under Legal Notice No. 534, an agreement was reached between the teachers and the Government of this country. It was agreed that teachers would be paid commencing 1997 in five annual amounts. In 1997, teachers were paid their first tranche. In 1998, 1999, 2000, 2001 and up to-date in 2015, the balances have been nothing else but a mere dream."
