The University of Zimbabwe has recently drawn criticism for its meagre compensation of $2.50 per hour offered to Adjunct Lecturers within the institution's Law Faculty. Those affected, who recently switched from part-time to permanent posts at the institution, have been dismayed by the university's latest remuneration policy. Adjunct Lecturers' duties include giving classroom lectures, preparing presentations, and answering questions from students.
Fadzayi Mahere, a prominent lawyer and former Member of Parliament, expressed grave concerns about the impact of such low remuneration on teaching quality at the university. Her statement emphasised the absurdity of asking skilled academic professionals to labour for such a low salary. However, Jonathan Moyo, a former ZANU PF politburo member in exile, proposed a different reading, claiming that the letter had been misinterpreted.
