    "content": "and support this Petition. Those of us who come from pastoralist communities have really suffered in the manner in which teachers are recruited in this country. You find, for example, in Tiaty Constituency we are one of the least staffed in terms of teacher placement, both in primary and secondary schools. Whenever teachers are recruited, for example, secondary school teachers, Kenyans come from all over the country. Tiaty has become an employment bureau for teachers from all over the country. We have no issue with Kenyans getting those jobs, but the problem is the retention even for the primary school teachers who are employed and then posted elsewhere. Those who come from other communities, whenever there are small issues of skirmishes or insecurity, they run away and our children are left unattended to and untaught. So, I fully support this petition and urge that we move forward and change the recruitment policy of teachers in this Republic. I thank you."
