Teachers’ salaries in South Darfur’s Kalma camp ‘unpaid since 2004’

Abdallah Mohamed Suleiman, the head of the Education Programme at the Kalma camp for the displaced near Nyala, capital of South Darfur, has informed Radio Dabanga that 34 teachers, of basic and secondary school stages, have not received their salaries since their appointment in 2004. The Education Programme pays the teachers only allowances. Suleiman is now requesting, through Radio Dabanga, to the Governor and the Minister of Education of South Darfur to provide the teachers with salaries, and the displaced pupils with educational services, in short, to treat them on an equal footing with the rest of the state schools in South Darfur.
