In-service teachers go unpaid

We live in rented accommodation in and around Francistown. Accommodation in this city is very expensive and some of our landlords do not understand our situation, one said, adding that they face eviction. Reached for comment, the Principal of FCE Sir Wonder Masebola said the college was no longer responsible for paying in-service teachers. A senior TSM officer who requested anonymity admitted the delay. The Principal Public Relations Officer of the Ministry of Education, Nomsa Zuze, referred enquiries to Acting TSM Director, Philip Tsumake, who happened to be on leave and referred Mmegi to his subordinates.

But Tsumakes subordinates said the matter was outside their mandate.
