Government report reveals corruption and abuse of Taiz technical education director “Al-Hawban”
Yemen
Yamanat – Special
Employees of the Al-Hawban Industrial Technical Institute in Taiz Governorate complain about interference in their work and abuses committed against them by the director of the Technical Education and Vocational Training Office, Nabil Al-Jundi.
Even though the office’s job is to supervise the institute, the military’s interventions continue, and he even seeks to confiscate the powers of the institute’s dean with his continued interventions, and refuses to transfer the institute’s office to the government complex, defying local authorities’ directives for the transfer.
Although the Ministry of Technical Education and Vocational Training has merged with the Ministry of Education into one, the soldier continues to engage in illegal interference.
Despite what a government report revealed about the violations and abuses committed by the soldier and his practice of administrative and financial corruption, he was not held accountable.
