Schools not closing for 21st Feb movement celebrations – Dokora

Zimbabwe’s minister of education Dr Lazarus Dokora has asked the public to ignore a ‘directive’ claiming that schools in Matabeleland and Masvingo would close on Thursday and Friday for President Robert Mugabe’s birthday celebrations.

Schools will be open tomorrow [Thursday] and Friday as usual.
