This is teachers' strike week, the first week of September, when pupils were to be back in public primary schools, and students back in high school for the last lap of the year.
If our leaders were really committed to the welfare of wanafunzi, MPs would take 50 per cent pay cuts, MCAs would self-scrape themselves (they are there to take trips to take in cultures they are too crude to appreciate) and the digital lap project would be aborted to pay our teachers.
The downside is parents are stuck with students who should be in third term – including the five alleged lesbians of St George’s. They sued the school in order to be re-admitted. And well they should.
