Kenya 🇰🇪 Teachers Are The Most Well Paid In East Africa

Image
ANALYSIS By Dorris Otieno Kenyan teachers are not only the best paid in East Africa, but also earn almost 12 times more than the country's average pay, a comparative study by Nation Newsplex and the Institute of Economic Affairs reveals. Even as teachers go on strike for the 12th time since their first industrial action in 1962, the analysis, which compares teachers' salaries in Kenya with those of their peers in select African countries , also finds that the lowest-paid teacher in Kenya earns more than the highest-paid teacher in Uganda. Uganda and South Africa were chosen as countries against which to compare wages of teachers because they have the most up-to-date data against which the comparison could be made. While Tanzania was not included in the comparison because only average pay for the year 2011 was available, even its figures indicated that Kenyan teachers earn more than their Tanzanian counterparts. The highest paid Kenyan teacher earns almost 12 times more than the...

Creating Awareness About Your Business Through Social Media Platforms

Image
When it comes to prioritizing your marketing strategies, it can be hard to decide what will make the cut. But the problem is that many small business owners usually ignore some of the most powerful strategies, such as Social Media Marketing. Most business owners simply do not have time to delve in this intriguing online concept and its mysterious features. Some of them do not understand what it Social Media is, while others think it’s only for teenagers. However, what they do not realize is that ignoring social media could be a huge mistake. Look at it this way; a good number of teenagers who joined Facebook in 2007 are in their early twenties now and they are still using Facebook. Not only are they using Facebook, but so are their children, parents, grandparents, and siblings. People of all ages, races, genders, and income levels are now using Facebook and other social media networking sites. It does not really matter whether you are a fan of social media ...

Market-based interventions can stabilize grain production

By: Wallace Mauggo Africa is in the headlines again about numerous areas suffering climate change-induced food shortages, and usually the critical ingredient is cereals, with the species or variety, depending on local culture, usage and market factors. For many years experts have compared food policies in different African countries to lessons on what works, what doesn’t work and why. It can’t be said that any generalized were reached that were accepted by experts of various viewpoints, as each case study used has it drawbacks, and as Shakespeare reflected, some happy, some sad. It is rather easy to draw a list of African countries on the basis of success and failures in their aggro-interventionist or subsidy policies, usually the lynchpin of suggestions on what to do about in agriculture generally, or food crops in that sense. The Maputo Declaration of the African Union set out in 2010 is reputed to have brought African countries to commit about 10% of ann...

Let the World Know; That Kilimanjaro Belongs To Tanzania (#KilimanjaroBelongsToTanzania)

Image
Different Routes to the Top of Mount Kilimanjaro Dear readers, It is a common thing nowadays, reading newspapers, magazines, listening to radios, watching TVs, and browsing through all Digital Channels to hear that, ‘’Mount Kilimanjaro’’ is in Kenya. Such announcements are repeatedly uttered by a particular group of persons from Kenya and their agents abroad. A recent post on the Tumblr blog by the name of ‘’Yet Another Plat’’, dishonestly and publicly declared that Mt. Kilimanjaro is in Kenya. This is a total lie to me, you and everybody reading this article, unless one gives concrete reasons to believe otherwise. With that notion of people with crooked minds distorting reality about Mountain Kilimanjaro being in Tanzania, came up with an idea of creating a powerful hash- tag, and ultimately A #TwitterChat. The chat will be a starting point for like minded people to discuss all about the mountain and other factual data complementing its importance...
