Teachers in Bikita district are alleging that they are being forced to pay money for this year’s Independence celebrations.
A letter which is circulating in Bikita District is requesting all civil servants to pay at least US$1 dollar for Independence. 

The letters which originated from the District Administrator (DA) office are being circulated by the District Education Office. The heads of schools are told that they should tell their teachers to pay the dollar each failure of which teachers won’t be recruited to participate in Government activities like being polling officers etc. What makes the teachers stunned is when someone asking for a donation tells you that it is mandatory to pay a donation and attaches retributive action to be taken on failure to donate. It’s interesting, is it.
