Back2School: Seconday Education Minister Nullifies Fake Transfer of 367 Teachers, Principles to Follow

 The Minister of Secondary Education, Jean Ernest Bibehe has nullified the transfer of 367 Government Secondary and High School teachers who faked transfers to other schools with the complicity of some senior staffs in that ministry. CRTV reported that the decision was made by the Minister of Secondary Education Jean Ernest Bibehe after a thorough cross check of their files by the Human Resource Management of the Ministry.

According to officials at the Ministry of Secondary Education, 369 files in question were crosschecked out of which only 2 were genuine. Moreover, out of the 369 files, only 146 teachers in question presented their documents as demanded by the Ministry.

It is but normal that the others did not border to present theirs since they are mindful of the foul game.

It was also reviewed that some of the fake transfers were orchestrated by some government officials. To this, the Ministry has embarked into strict investigation to track down the said unscrupulous agents.

The teachers in question are expected in their initial Schools latest on 1st September 2016, after which their Principals will have to establish certificates of resumption which will be forwarded to the Ministry of Secondary Education by 30th September 2016.

Any teacher who fails to adhere the call will receive sanctions from both the Ministry of Secondary Education and the Public Service. It is alleged a network operates in that Ministry that has planted agents all over the country who collect as much as FCFA 250.000 for transfers and about FCFA 300.000 for the appointment of principles for secondary schools and about FCFA 500.000 for high schools. A classified source hinted us at weekend that the Minister has also decided to review the appointment of secondary schools and high school principles. According to the hint, some of the principles will be demoted and sanctioned. There is heat in the Ministry as everyone is suspicious of everybody....
