The Yemeni government has called on the United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) to launch an investigation into the looting by Houthi militias of contributions paid to teachers in Ibb province as part of a cash incentive project to support teachers in schools.
Yemeni Information Minister Muammar al-Eryani confirmed that the Houthi terrorists’ looting of contributions from dozens of female teachers in Ibb province confirms that this is “a gang that intends by all means to humiliate, starve and bankrupt Yemenis. “
Al-Eryani accused the Houthi militia of imposing lists of project beneficiaries from the outside on lists of state employees in the education sector, while refraining from paying salaries to workers for 8 years.
He added: “The Houthi militia was not satisfied with the imposition of lists of project beneficiaries outside the lists of civil servants under the pretext of “effective teachers”. This is the biggest human tragedy in the world.”
The Yemeni Information Minister urged UNICEF to launch an investigation into the incident and review the current incentive mechanism, which he said “allowed the Houthi militia to list thousands of its members as beneficiaries of a project that aims to improve the living conditions of teachers and teachers and prevent disruption of the educational process in militia-controlled areas.
Dozens of teachers, men and women, have organized protests in a number of schools in Ibb province to denounce their deprivation of financial contributions that should have been spent in aid of UNICEF.
