Kids2day! Pledge Solidarity with Teachers

October 6, 2009: On the occassion of World Teachers Day, Kids2day! has expressed solidarity with the wonderful men and women who make it their business to impart much needed education to the children of this world.

That these people work out their lives to prepare the rest of the world to make a living is certainly out of this world

"The work that teachers do is unexplainable, and the poverty they live in is inexcusable," Kids2day! Chairman Abdullai Kamara said.

"The children of Liberia maintain their allegiance to the Liberian state but pledge their solidarity with teachers, who are the world for them," Kamara said.

Kids2day! believes that the fight for better education and development in Liberia must begin with the development of teachers, whether by way of their education, emoument for their services and support for their families.

Without better conditions of service, we can expect what we have... poor WAEC and examination results, indiscipline in schools, lower acumen and IQs, among others.

We call upon the community to engage their government to see reason and improve the lot of teachers, This is a sure way of making education better in Liberia.

Kids2day! remains resolved to improving the lots of children across Liberia, but like to note that this must be closely alied with the lot of teachers.
