Speaking further, the MCSSTA boss said, “We have noticed with dismay that the inconsistency of the payment of teachers and health workers salaries including other civil servants, and the lack of stable rate from the onset of this regime imposing serious threat to our survival. We want to inform you and the public that after six months, however, beginning today we are calling on President Weah through the 54th National Legislature to unconditionally address our plight within a period of seven working days or face a non-violence protest across the country”, Nyormui addressing the media warned.
