THE LOST 50-60 PAYHIKE DEAL

                                      TEACHERS LOSERS ONCE AGAIN.

It is not a rare occurrence for teachers to plan their infamous strikes closer to national exams later in the year. This they do deliberately to leave the government with nearly no options, except to agree to their, then salary demands. At such times closing the school indefinitely is normally not the best option.

It is appalling  how the issue of teachers pay can never be resolved by a sitting government once and for all. In one way or another they normally use this issue as a campaign strategy. Consequently teachers always find themselves in this pay rise impasse, to such an extend that even the teachers themselves use their own grievances to broker political deals. In which union officials use fellow teachers as political baits and so teachers end up being trapped in the cycle. Right from the infamous Nyayo regime to the equally evil digital regime.

The morass of teachers salary increase, seem not to wad off. It has become a political contrivance to the power brokers, union officials. As Chairman Mudzo Nzili loughs to the bank after his appointment to the NHIF and, Secretary general Wilson Sosion could have just secured something to fly him in his political ambition.

Se the collective bargain agreement signed lately is just another chapter in the cycle of teachers pay dispute. Yet this time teachers have incurred a massive loss in this evil trade. First, after undergoing that terrible financial dry-spell and intimidation by government, the 50-60 which was a creation of government itself, just died a natural death. Two, knut and kuppet brokers were smartly rewarded for playing ball with the government. Then the union dues that TSC had halted perhaps temporarily will now continue to be remitted to the Unions peacefully. A union that has been made derelict and irrelevant by the agreement. Of what use is a union when there is no possibility to rally members for an industrial action?. As it is . It would be more cost beneficial if the Union is disbanded. So that teachers are not pressed more to pay union dues. The union officials will be still laughing all the way to the bank on fa

The Reasons for the Rebellion of 1837 in Upper Canada

The Reasons for the Rebellion of 1837 in Upper Canada INTRODUCTION There was neither big revolution nor dependence war in the history of Canada. The Rebellion of 1837 was the first and the only one revolt with certain scale, which occupies an important position in Canada history. In The Rising in French Canada 1837 , Joseph Schull indicates that the Rebellion of 1837 is the mirror of the conflicts among developing national and political philosophy, different life styles. It’s a test for the people and leaders of the country. There were two armed uprisings of 1837 which took place in the lower and Upper Canada respectively. In the lower Canada which was ethnically heterogeneous, comprising both the French and English colonialists; the revolt was due to political ethno-exclusivity. The colonial administration treated the two factions with discrimination. It favored the English colonialists and neglected the voices of the French colonialists. However, in the Upper Canada, t...

ELECTIONS ARE EVIL HENCE THE SHEDDING OF BLOOD

THE TROUBLE WITH KENYAN ELECTIONS The current legal stalemate bedeviling the country can be attributed to reluctance on the part of Kenyan institutions to adhere to the rule of law. The chief culprit is the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission and the government. Jubilee party has merged with the state so that the country is not ruled by the Jubilee government but by the Jubilee party. The party even controlling an independent IEBC This diabolic precedence started way back in 2013 when Jubilee, not in a free and fair manner, rigged their way to statehouse.   The Supreme Court then did not make satisfactory findings, though the petitioner accepted the verdict. Since then the party had been choreographing another rigging scheme. Although democracy entails the decision of the majority to prevail, Jubilee has taken advantage to exercise tyranny. The government rules its own way independent of the wishes of the people. Even annihilating and trampling the law more o...

MONEY MAKES MAN MAD

Money is the exact opposite of the Holy spirit. Money changes people. When a poor person finally gets money, the person changes like a snake that sheds it's exo-skeleton or like a caterpillar that becomes a butterfly or a moth. The moth can never remember it's Caterpillar life.  Wait! Almost everyone who was not borne in a flood of money. Some men immediately start to think, they can be sponsors or even to the extreme end, add onto themselves more wives and concubines. Some men all of a sudden fall out of love with the women who stood with them at their lowest height below poverty level.  The worse though are women. when a woman who had not known money comes to find good money in the palm of her hands. Immediately she compulsively feels, " I don't need a man. Where can I take a man. I am independent. I can pay my rent, buy any clothe I want, I can buy a car and do everything I want. No I don't need a man."  That is when a married woman stops ...
