Teachers Union of Malawi (TUM) has assured teachers in the country that government is working on addressing their grievances.
TUM general secretary Dennis Kalekeni said teachers and all civil servants should calm down and wait for the union to provide them with correct information regarding the issue of salary increment.
Kalekeni claimed that negotiations between the teachers’ body and government have been finalised and at the moment they are waiting for approval from the office of the president and cabinet (OPC).
“We urge all the civil servants and teachers to patiently wait as there is much anxiety at the moment as some figures circulating out there are incorrect hence the teachers should wait for us to release the correct information,” said Kalekeni.
He added that the civil servants will be told on their new salaries so the need for the teachers and civil servants to keep calm.
Earlier this month the teachers held nationwide protests after getting tired of government’s failure to meet the teachers’ demands.
The teachers’ grievances also included failure by government to pay them their arrears and government’s reluctance to provide transport for teachers who were transferred to rural areas.

Patience will take us nowhere.
The sectors which would be treated with better hand are education and health coz the impacts caused by workers from these sectors are much felt than those in forestry department hence the government should somehow tread carefully.
Don’t take TUM seriously, it is run by hopeless individuals

Patience or patient lol
TUMU is a waste of space. These blotted bellies but hungry are benefiting more than those who are supposed to. Next time teachers will go for eternity without salaries
Kkkkkk musandikumbuse kjale langa
let who is responsible in judging,should judge you.
Kkkkkk.. Teachers u need to understbnd that Government and TUM is a coin the other side. The only advice I can give to teahers is that use your time to grow some of the late coming salaries. If these produce fruits you wil not worry whether there is salary increment or not, whether the salary has come late or early, whether leavegrant….. To the infinity of problems. After all teachers we r living things we can adapt to environments b it social or economic environments. If u r sent to teach in Misuku hill you develop a bigger chest and more surface area to the lung to draw more of the deminishing oxygen as you go up. Anyway that is how God helps us to adapt. But you dont need a miracle from God to help your finances. Ok if u want go for miracle money and c what wil hapen to ur life.
Kkkkkkkk……………..Sir Chizumira the Biologist,higher areas have small column of air so the same with teachers and we should adapt to such conditions.
If we cant adapt we will stop complaining.
I mean never stop complaining.
stupid TUM, teachers are exploited and its dead silent. Maneb has not paid them but it is snoring

Sound funny. Because u are teachers then yo brain is now equivalent to the schook kids. U are being used like a condom or toilet paper. Wake up and smell coffee. Everything is up by 400% food, fees etc. They u choose to go with 0%. To me this dont make sense. Maybe i mis something here. Kaya zanu izo mimba imawawa mwini nakubala. Mudzikango kongola mumahawker. Or else #SHUT DOWN MALAWI WAVUNDA.
Kodi munafika pano K100,000? if not then Govt shld increase indeed your salaries
Damn your salary increment when you are struggling to pay the current salaries on time.Us teachers go through thick and thin to meet the demands of a decent meal.Its soya pieces and nsima day in and day out.
