Paul
That is great but the problem with you guys in diaspora is you remain so. No sharing of knowledge with mother country.

Nairobi (AFP) - Kenya's education ministry ordered all schools to shut Friday because of a three-week teachers' strike over pay in the east African country.
The Supreme Court ruled in August that state teachers should get a pay rise of at least 50 percent, but the government said they do not have the money to comply and refused. The teachers then went on strike.
"Tension has been building up among learners, who have been left idle under the care of very few teachers... some incidents of insecurity in schools have been reported," the ministry of education said in a statement.
"In order to safeguard the security of the learners, staff and school property, and thus address the concerns of parents and other key stakeholders, the ministry has revised the term dates for a closure."
Kenya's annual school year officially began on August 31, but many schools never opened due to the strike. National exams are due to begin in October.

Oh my God, this is chaos. Increasing teachers' salary by 50% at once can increase the wage bill kwambiri. No wonder MOF refused. May be it's better to do it in phases.

The complexity is that their salary is pegged using scale which applies to other professions as well such that raising the salaries will open a pandora box as the rest will want the same matching. Its a tough situation.

Who is to blame? May be all civil servants need to be taught basic economics on effects of wage bill. Flip the coin. Kenyan politicians live the most opulent life in Africa, ie vs the economy of their country. Teachers see it.
