Dr. Khupe inadvertently confirms that Parliament, not POLAD – an open letter
Dear Dr. Khupe,
I have watched the video recording of your Xmas message, which is a good thing you did to reach out and be heard. However, in my view, one point that I have commented on before, about POLAD being a duplication of the roles already being played by other arms of Government was very evident in your message, in which you praised Honorable Priscillah Misihairambwi for the good work she is doing as Chairperson of the Parliamentary Committee of Education which has resulted in some positive change. Parliament is therefore the platform to lobby, that is why the result of the lobbying was communicated to the Chairperson of the Committee, not to POLAD.
There is no harm in leaders of political parties voluntarily coming together to find solutions, as parties, but to then allocate Government resources for work that is already covered by other arms of government is unconstitutional, and a corrupt practice.
