Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 66411, member: 636"] The Tanzania Teachers' Union confirmed that its members will cast ballots on Wednesday, when the nation holds general elections. Permanent Secretary Joseph Misalaba dismissed social media claims that educators would skip voting and instructed regional administrators to encourage teacher turnout. The union praised government cooperation on educator issues and called on teachers to promote peace and national unity. Misalaba said some teachers serve as election assistants under government regulations. The statement rejected online reports discouraging teacher participation as attempts to spread confusion. Union President Suleiman Ikomba authorized the official position supporting full electoral engagement by educators nationwide. [/QUOTE]
