I'm signing because I'm also an unemployed educator with 4 years of being unemployed because of corrupt officials
This issue matters to me because many qualified teachers remain unemployed while irregularities and favoritism deny us the opportunity to use our skills and support our communities.
It's because I am an unemployed teacher and I need a job since I have 10 years work experience in the department of education,but the department does not employed me I'm working as SGB Educator from 2017 till now 🥹
This is important to me after 9 years I've graduated im still at home with no work that is why I'm signing this petition,my family was having a hope that one day I'm going to change the situation at home but instead I'm the one who ask for help but I am a graduate. It's even more hurts that our government failed us as unemployed teachers.
For hiring
I have a degree in education majors mathematics and Business studies
I'm a hard worker also willing to learn more for any opportunity skills jobs
