She complains that the teachers do come to school but they only sit and leave the school early without teaching them.
A teacher in Juba who prefers not to be mention for fear of retribution says they have stayed for nearly five months without getting their salary.
He says they need to provide needs for their families.

Swaka advises teachers to resume their normal classes as the ministry is working to address the issue within three days.
Dunia and other students believe if the strike continues they might not be able to finish their syllabus which might affect their education.
