    "content": "In 2019, the quality of our labour should not be how many hours, how many days or how many months that an employee puts at work. We should move from a time when people had to report to work at 8.00 a.m. and leave at whatever time they need to leave, be it 8.00 p.m. or 9.00 p.m. irrespective of the state of mind of those employees. I was looking at a photo circulating on social media of one billionaire, Richard Branson, the owner of a great airline having found an employee sleeping at the workplace. He took a photo of the employee and said he was agreat employee who had worked so hard that he had earned himself 10 or 15 minutes of a nap at the office. The thinking that the quality of our labour is in the hours put at work in 2019 is very dehumanising. The fabric of our society is in the way we bring up our children. That is why as a country, we should be very concerned, especially when videos of a kid from one of the schools in Nairobi circulates images of himself hurling insults and uttering words that cannot be mentionedon the Floor of this House. Probably, it is because they have access to a device called a mobile phone that they should not even have and know how to operate in the first place.He was uttering those words because he probably heard somebody uttering them or he watched a video or read a book where those words were been mentioned."
