"content": "locally trained teachers work there for the period which we shall determine. Afterwards, when security is back, we can give them teachers. The history of teaching in this country is very interesting. All communities have had a chance to protect teachers who are non-local. The early teachers in Central Kenya at Alliance High School and other places in this country were Europeans. It was the duty of the local communities to protect those Europeans until they trained the local people to become teachers. That is how we got the teachers we have today. The communities and the leaders of north eastern Kenya must stand up and talk to their people and tell them to protect the non-local teachers. Soon, they will be having their own teachers and they do not have to worry about the non-local teachers. Therefore, we want to congratulate TSC for having taken the step of trying to relocate the teachers who are in those zones. I want to advise this House that those teachers should not go back. Yes, you have done well to condemn this action but to some extent again you have mentioned that only two teachers have died. What are you telling us? How many teachers do you want to die before we take action? You cannot afford to equate the right to life to the numbers you will be counting before you make a decision about this. Therefore, a quick decision by this House is important to make sure that, one, we have the children in those areas learning under this system proposed by Hon. Sossion and, two, teachers are safe."
