University of Douala (ENSET) Students Go On Rampage

ENSET Support Staff Go On Rampage Over 30 support staff of the Higher Technical Teachers Training Institute known in its French acronym, ENSET, Tuesday 24 May, 2016 staged a protest demonstration on the Campus of the University of Douala, denouncing 10 years of unpaid leave allowance, 26 months of unpaid Semester examinations supervision among others. Activities were paralyzed on Campus as the support staff abandoned their working tools and sat in an open air just at the entrance of the school.

According to a member of the Staff Delegates group, Mbome Raymond, they will only resume duties when their plight has been given a listening ear. The Rector, Professor Francois Javier in a crisis meeting blamed the nonpayment of such dues to slow administrative procedures.

The Rector assured them that their problems will be given concrete solutions after he must have met with members of the finance committee. The support staff promised to resume work but insisted that the strike will have to continue if nothing is being done in the nearest future.
