The Minister of Information has said “efforts are underway” to end the protests over salary arrears.

Both public university lecturers and employees of the judiciary have laid down their tools, demanding unpaid salaries, allowances, and better working conditions.

They have vowed not to get to work until their demands are met.

“Efforts are underway. They will be addressed within this week. So when I say all these issues would be addressed. It is inclusive of everybody,” Michael Makuei Lueth told Eye Radio on Tuesday.
