Farai Dziva|Members of the dreaded Central Intelligence Organisation are tormenting teachers for indicating that the tough economic situation is grossly affecting their work.

This was said by Progressive Teachers’ Union of Zimbabwe secretary-general Raymond Majongwe.

Majongwe told a daily publication:
We are advised overzealous DSIs are on the prowl in Chikomba, Chipinge and parts of Matabeleland South, harassing teachers because of incapacitation issues.

We know that several of our leaders have been summons by the President’s Office across the country. A case in point is in Chivhu where several heads were summoned to CIO offices and were instructed to charge teachers.

“Because of this harassment we will be advising the ILO and Education International of the harassment we are going through.

Our demands for a living wage are legitimate and justified. There is nothing political about asking for money for food and rent. The CIO has no business in schools.”
