Maï-Ndombe: Provincial Assembly demands withdrawal of order dissolving teachers’ inter-union committee

After hearing the parties on Friday, the Maï-Ndombe Provincial Assembly called for the withdrawal of an order by provincial Education Minister Justin Iyolo dissolving the provisional committee of the Maï-Ndombe 1 teachers’ inter-union. Lawmakers said the minister has no authority to dissolve a union and urged a peaceful resolution, as classes have been disrupted for about a month and a half. Assembly rapporteur Malachie Mpia Bokona said a delegation would travel to Kinshasa with the minister and the union president to seek a solution to reported salary irregularities. Teachers are demanding, among other things, their wages for December 2025 and January 2026.

Fah, whose views are often seen as favorable to the Yaoundé government, is regularly accused by opponents of echoing its messaging.
