Teachers’ Union of Zimbabwe (TUZ) secretary-general Manuel Chitokwindo said they are against the teachers’ planned march to President Emmerson Mnangagwa’s Office, which is being organised by other associations in the education sector to demand a 100% salary review for their members.
Chitokwindo said they are willing to negotiate with Government rather than march to Mnangagwa’s office to have their grievances addressed. Said Chitokwindo:
TUZ does not agree with the idea of marching to the President’s Office as if the government negotiators have shut the doors for conflict resolution, notwithstanding the fact that our grievances need immediate attention and robust engagement with the employer. No doubt the issue of salaries which are far below the poverty datum line, scrapping of vacation leave, bunging systems and hasty implementation of the new curriculum crowned by insufficient resources in schools, particularly in rural marginalised areas, the employer has to focus on these grievances in order to bring sanity in the education sector.
