The Association of Professors of the University of Kinshasa (APUKIN) bluntly disavowed the position taken by their colleagues gathered within the Dynamics of Professors of UNIKIN and the Staff Collective of ESU, on the prosecution of the strike within the inspired hill. In their update of Tuesday, July 28, the two corporations conditioned the resumption of courses at UNIKIN by the satisfaction of various demands by the Government.
Right in their boots, the faculty members of APUKIN said they were not affected by this decision made by their colleagues. For them, this is purely and simply of manifest bad faith, alluding to the current context dominated by a global health crisis which has had and which continues to have harmful effects on the world economy in general, and national, in particular.
“We will resume activities. What the friends are asking for only involves a group of 15 or 20. But, in the structure that you know, the APUKIN does not have a number of 15 or 20 teachers ”, declared the president of the APUKIN , professor Matthieu Bokolo.
He added: “These are friends who think that for there to be a resumption of activities, we must first improve salary conditions, but they forget that this pandemic has hit every country in the world. This is bad faith. “
Recall that a statement made public on July 28, two structures of higher and university education, namely: “the Dynamics of professors of UNIKIN” and “the Staff Collective of ESU” announced the continuation the strike until their demands are successful. These include improving the living and working conditions of academic, scientific, administrative, technical and labor staff by revising upward the salary envelope for Associate Professors to at least $ 5,000 USD.
In addition, the government had made public the revised calendar which provides for the resumption of classes for August 10 in academic institutions across the country.
