By the same yardstick, the Teachers Service Commission has put teachers on notice that they will be required to declare their wealth. Last year, the Teachers Service Commission dismissed and blacklisted more than 200 teachers for defiling pupils under their care. Yet while such measures demand the support of all, teachers' unions view them as an attempt to micromanage teachers. For a long time, the general tendency with public servants has been to turn their offices and positions into cash cows. This constitutional requirement is being put to good use in helping to root out undesirable individuals from public service and other institutions where the public goes in search of services.
