• 10 Mar 2016 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I have the data on my fingertips. view
• 10 Mar 2016 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I gave you the information that the TSC is ignoring. The real shortage is 2,961 teachers and not 1,600. Can I proceed? view

• 10 Mar 2016 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, my question was very clear. I wrote that there is a shortage of 2,230. However, the Chairperson has given me response with a very low figure to what I asked. That clearly shows that the data at the TSC is not updated. No wonder I am complaining that we have a shortage of teachers. view
• 10 Mar 2016 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, my question was very clear. I am a teacher by profession. There is a TSC office in my county that gave me the right data. However, at the national level, the TSC has different data. That may also be reflected in your various counties. The fact that I have discovered there are some discrepancies of these figures from county level and the national level, could assist the TSC to come up with the right figures.

• 10 Mar 2016 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, my clarification is that there are schools with many teachers while others are understaffed in this county. For example, Chewoiyet High School has 1,400 students against 38 teachers while Alliance Girls has 1,400 students with 84 teachers employed by the TSC.

I know that is not an issue of West Pokot alone, it could be reflected in other counties. view
• 10 Mar 2016 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the Chairperson has said that there is a shortage of 87,000 teachers in the whole nation; of which 39,000 concerns secondary schools. In order to understand the scenario I am referring to, he should kindly pick a county in the Nyanza region, give us the total number of teachers for the primary and secondary schools; take another one in western region; about four or five in total; then you will understand my worry when you convert the figures to percentage. Then, this House may appreciate what I am referring to. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, you will ... view
• 10 Mar 2016 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I support this Bill and I join my colleagues in congratulating Sen. Sang and the entire membership of the Committee on Delegated Legislation for coming up with this brilliant Bill to assist in the procedure of enactment of subsidiary legislations. There are many things that are happening in the county assemblies. The level of education of some of the MCAs is so low that they do not understand the process of legislation. Some did not go to school, but because they are village politicians with an art The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is ... view

• 9 Mar 2016 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, almost every sport in Kenya has nearly come to a standstill. At one time we were the best in football and volleyball and now, athletics is being attacked. I was listening to the BBC today and the issue of doping and how some athletes in Russia have been affected was being discussed. One of the inventors of--- view
