MPS on Public accounts committee demand the education service commission to cause the recruitment of more teachers in schools which are experiencing teachers shortage across the country.
The demand came as MPS were meeting officials from the Education service commission.
MPS Eddie Kwizera , Margaret Kiboijana said that schools are understaffed because the Education service commission has not fulfilled its mandate of pressing government to recruit more teachers.
