Threats of teachers pay imbroglio out of order!

By Ababu Namwamba

NAIROBI, KENYA: Among my favorite childhood stories was the tale of the North Wind and the Sun. The two were  locked in a raging dispute on which was the stronger, when a traveler came along wrapped in a warm cloak. They agreed that the one who first succeeded in making the traveler take his cloak off should be considered stronger than the other. Setting off the contest, the North Wind blew as hard as he could, but the more he blew the more closely did the traveler fold his cloak around him; and at last the North Wind gave up.
