KNUT Exposes Teacher Hardships in Teso Linked to TSC Delocalization.

Geoffrey Ekasiba, the Executive Secretary of the KNUT Teso branch, has raised alarms about worsening issues within schools, including absenteeism, alcoholism, and reports of sexual abuse.

Ekasimba warned that these problems are becoming more prevalent and called for urgent action to address them before they further disrupt the education system.

The Impact of Delocalization on Teachers

Additionally, Ekasiba spoke about the impact of the TSC’s delocalization policy.

The policy has led to the separation of families and an increase in extramarital affairs (mpango wa kando), contributing to a rise in family breakdowns.

Many teachers have requested relocations closer to their homes, but these requests have largely been denied, exacerbating personal and family-related stresses.

With over 2,000 teachers in the Teso region, including Teso North, Teso South, and Teso Central, Ekasiba emphasized that the challenges created by delocalization are deeply felt.

The policy has had unintended social consequences, including increased rates of extramarital affairs and family disintegration, as teachers are separated from their spouses and children.

He urged for a revision of the policy to better support the emotional and social well-being of teachers, suggesting that more efforts be made to keep teachers close to their families when possible.

” It’s painful to note that the spirit of sexual abuse on our pupils is hovering around our institutions,” he said, adding that cases of absenteeism and drunkardness are increasing within our institutions.
