That alone displays a serious warped sense of priorities > This major shift must also include a steep increase in the amount of money allocated to building new schools and, critically, the amount we allocate to maintain schools, provide teaching materials and textbooks. The fabric of most government and local council schools is in a shocking state of disrepair More: New Zimbabwe _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
