Africa-Press – Angola. The Luanda Provincial Delegation of the General Inspectorate of State Administration (IGAE) announced this Wednesday that the investigation at the 17 de Setembro School, in the Rangel Urban District, confirmed the illegal occupation of eight classrooms.
In a statement, the IGAE refers that in the public school, citizens who have no link with the Ministry of Education and without any knowledge or consent of the said ministerial department are residing in eight classrooms.
Following the inquiry, the occupants were instructed to return the classrooms to the management of the school institution to allow more students to attend classes in the next academic year.
The IGAE adds that the 17th of September School has not received 7th grade students since 2012, due to lack of classrooms.
However, in order to safeguard the families’ right to housing and as they are residents of Luanda, the IGAE requested the intervention of the governor of Luanda in order to enroll the families in question in projects to allocate social, evolutionary or land residences.
The IGAE communiqué adds that Governor Manuel Homem has issued guidelines, by the way, to the Municipal Administration of Luanda, “thus ending the intervention of the lGAE, as an internal control body, on this particular case”.
The Luanda provincial delegation of the General Inspectorate of State Administration says this is not the first case of occupation by educational institutions, as the same happens with a house for teachers in the school attached to the former Attachés and to the Dom Moisés School, in Vila Alice.
The IGAE also makes reference to the existence of function residences that are occupied by former Public Managers of the Province of Luanda, without specifying the sector.
According to the IGAE, these processes are still ongoing at the institution (IGAE), stressing that the occupants continue to resist their voluntary surrender.
It warns that the processes related to the cases of residences of functions will be sent to the court, as it is the only body with competences to issue an eviction order.
