GOVERNMENT MAKES "CONCRETE" ATTEMPT TO SOLVE ISSUES RAISED BY DISGRUNTLED ANGLOPHONE TEACHERS

By this instruction, the minister wants to have a better understanding of how teachers with french educational background are ruining the English sub system of education. One of the biting problem of Anglophone Teachers.

Cameroon Concord can not independently confirm whether this development stemns from a recent crucial meeting between representatives of the lawyers, teachers trade unions and business magnet Baba Danpulo, where a correspondence on their grievances was sent to the head of state directly or from the controversial Ghogumu led Ad hoc team. But eyes poised teachers are confident that if round peg french trained teachers are removed from square hole English schools, it will be government's key step yet to end the crisis.

The Executive Secretary of CATTU, Wilfried Tassang openly confimed in an interview on a Douala based media outfit, Equinoxe Television that this matter is one of their major grievances and if government were to look into it by the end of the year, there are hopes they will suspend their strike and resume school when the second term begins.

The decision is also casting a dark shadow on the recent christmas gift of 1000 "bilingual" teachers from President Paul Biya. A gesture that was described by the striking teachers as misplaced priority as well as a poisonous move to pollute the Anglophone sub system of Education. But the minister had further instructed the delegates to come up with reports of the needs of each school in the regions to ensure that these "bilingual" teachers are sent to meet the existing needs in these improvished institutions.

Expectations are high to see what Ngale Bibehe will do after the files must have been submitted to him for scrutiny as from Wednesday.

Schools have been grounded in the North West and South West regions for more than a month now.
