The Taxpayer Pinch

It has become a norm for Kenyan MPs to sneak bills to parliament against the will of the people.
I wonder why they created Salaries and Remuneration Commission and yet they behave like big Brother.
For  MPs to award themselves Ksh 9.3 Million stipend at night and expecting the already burdened taxpayer to take it lying down is regrettable. "Just image the figures mathematically": There are 222 sitting MPs (222* 9.3)=Kshs 2,064,600,000. Where on earth do someone get a retirement  package for 9.3 Million for working only for 5 years?

The unending Strikes

I wonder why the government are ease when increasing salary perks for MPs and PS without questioning the source of the monies but when it comes to teachers, lecturers and nurses the create sleazy reasons of the notion that there is NO MONEY.   This is interesting when MPs and PS gets huge junk of the increments teachers and lecturers  gets merely 200, 500, 800, etc, increments. This is totally unreasonable. Issuing threats and ultimatums is not the way to go
