Arone Assures Teachers Of Better Days

Arone on Friday received a petition from unemployed teachers and those engaged on a temporary basis demanding employment. “Let me thank you for taking your time and effort. Let me assure you that we are aware of your concerns and are already working on solutions. The President will host a press conference this week and announce some of the things we will be doing. I cannot announce now as we have not yet met with unions to discuss,” he said.

The fed up teachers walked from Mahalapye to Gaborone on May 19 and arrived on Friday. Their leader, Kesaobaka Ditshike read a petition to the minister and his officials demanding a swift response.
