Over 8 000 Initial Primary Teacher Education (IPTE) graduates of the thirteenth and fourteenth cohorts are on government’s neck pressuring it to fully employ them arguing the country is wasting “too much human resource,” especially in the Ministry of Education.
Some of the IPTE 14 teachers, who on Tuesday presented a letter addressed to Lilongwe City Council Chief Executive Officer John Leo Chome, said apart from wasting “crucial human resource,” the Tonse Alliance-led government was not walking its talk on its promise to offer one million jobs in its first twelve months in office.

The letter, signed by the group’s chairperson Brighton Nyoni, has faulted the government for failing to take heed of their calls to employ them years after completing their training.
