Africa-Press – Zimbabwe. <\/strong><\/span>The Minister of Primary and Secondary Education, Evelyn Ndlovu, said her ministry will engage the Zimbabwe Anti-Corruption Commission (ZACC) to deal with teachers who are going to work but not are teaching.<\/p>\n

Teachers went on strike last month saying they were financially incapacitated and the government responded by threatening to suspend them and freeze their salaries.<\/p>\n

Fearing for their jobs, the majority of teachers are now back at work but reports indicate that some are not teaching, a development Minister Ndlovu said is tantamount to corruption. She said:<\/p>\n

As the ministry, we are going to take stern measures against those teachers who are sitting in.<\/p>\n

We will engage the Zimbabwe Anti-Corruption Commission to deal with them. We will also have monitoring strategies from our head office.<\/p>\n

As you are aware, no inspections are being done due to transport constraints, especially in remote areas.<\/p>\n

Ndlovu made the remarks while giving oral evidence before the Parliamentary Portfolio Committee on Thursday.<\/p>\n

Teachers and other civil servants want the Government to restore the US$540 per month salaries they used to earn before October 2018.<\/p>\n
