Ethiopian Civil Service University Students drawn from Gambela regional state held discussion with Gambela regional state president Ato Gatluak Tut Khoton different issues on 19 November 2016 at Abay Hall.
On the occasion Mr. Gatluak Tut Khot said it is mypleasure to be here with you today. Due to many inconveniencewe did not have a discussion for a long time. Iapologize for it. But now you have a chance to freely raise your questions and forward your comments and ideas MrGatluak Tut Khot added.
The students raiseddifferent problems thatthey face when they go back to their region atWoreda and regional bureaulevel. All other regional states cover the research and transportation feefor students. But inour cases the Gambela region is not volunteerto cover our transportation and research feesand allocates the training budget for us. Besides,fields of studies offered by Ethiopian Civil Service University are not incorporated in job summary in the regionalcivil service bureau. This increased the number of students who are not assigned to work after graduation the students said. On the other issues we also request to organize the Gambella students’ association here at ECSU students said.
Mr. Gatluak Tut Khot on his part gave a detailed answer for these questions. As in other universities, we assist you in establishing and strengthening the Gambela students association at ECSU. This will help us to fight some activities which defame the political activities in the region. The problems in research and transportation fees should be done in accordance with the regional and woreda bureau annual budget plan. Those students, who have joined ECSU without the recognition of the regional government,have faced these problems. I will take this question as an assignment and discus on it and seek solution with the cabinet members. The problems with Students who are not assigned to work after graduation has also the same character said Mr. Gatluak Tut Khot .
Finally Mr. Gatluak Tut Khot advised the students to show a good behavior and give priority to their education.
