Mzuzu University staff plan to protest during President Chakwera's visit next Wednesday at graduation. Teachers' office workers feel upset about the late payment of service money owed to them. Their gratuity payments have been unpaid for five months, though other schools received cash three months after contracts ended. The groups wrote to Chakwera as the school head, asking for money before April ended. They wonder if he ever saw their letter since nothing happened after they sent it.
Staff unions point out that workers at UNIMA KUHES MUBAS already received their funds two months ago. The staff will march peacefully if nobody pays them before graduation day comes. They believe the president can fix this problem fast if he knows about it. School leaders seem unable to explain why the money stays locked away. The protest might embarrass officials during an event meant to celebrate student success.
