IPTE 13 teachers to hold demonstrations for permanent employment

A group of teachers who graduated under IPTE 13 says it will hold demonstrations to force government to permanently employ them.

Speaking to radio Islam, a member of the technical committee which is organizing the demonstration Henry Gwani says the group consists of over three thousand teachers who were given a five months contract which expires this June.

Gwani alleged that government promised to permanently employ them after the expiry of 5 months contract but “until now, there is no information regarding future of their employment.”

He told radio Islam that they are today meeting officials of Lilongwe city Council to agree modalities of conducting the demonstrations.
