Dear Editor
The local applicants and the local people showed up at the civic center today 27-11-17 as none of the qualified local applicants were among the 36 newly recruited teachers.
This seem to the trend, almost all the local applicants were left out in the 2015 teacher recruitment and 96% of the teachers recruited left the district on transfer immediately after reporting, these are connected individuals coming from urban districts only using Mwense as entry in the system leaving the number of teachers in district very few even after recruitment and history is repeating itself as the same as happened and will happen to the district in the just ended 2017 teacher recruitment leaving the local teachers unemployed and yet very few teachers in the district.
The youths have complained through the council chairperson’s office that were very few not to be considered among the 36 deployed teachers or should have been posted to other districts where they services were needed,the meeting has been rescheduled to wednesday 29-11-17, the local parents and the affected applicants have promised to react if no action will be taken.
