A call to the mayor of Riohacha to improve the sanitary and infrastructure conditions of several institutions and educational centers in the District was made by the Association of Education Workers in La Guajira, Asodegua.
With this request they supported the decision to cease activities in several institutions and educational centers in the urban and rural areas of the District.
It is not fair that the Ministry of Education has been here for four years and today we see this panorama that is the product of negligence
Asodegua denounced that the breaches by the Mayor’s Office range from the implementation of the School Feeding Program (PAE) and school transportation, to the hiring of personnel for general services, the permanent water supply, the hiring of teachers and the repair of educational infrastructure.

“It is not fair that the Ministry of Education has been here for four years and today we see this scenario that is the product of the negligence they had because they did not focus it,” says Sildana Deluque, president of Asodegua.
One of the institutions whose infrastructure is in poor condition is El Chonkay, at its headquarters No. 3 Remedios Morales de Guao. There one of the walls that supports the access gate is cracked and is at risk of falling.
Likewise, there are rooms that are caves for bats, pigeons and rats, taking advantage of the lack of some ceiling tiles. This has generated the spread of nauseating odors and other risks for the community.
Asodegua asked the Secretaries of Education and Health to close the affected classrooms, since the situation has caused several parents to withdraw their children.
Another of the affected sites in El Chonkay is No. 2, Nuestra Señora de la Inmaculada. There the doors of the bathrooms are about to fall and the water service does not arrive.
Management’s response
Regarding these complaints, the Secretary of District Education, Jesús Herrera, confirmed that the general services contract has already been awarded and for next week the awarding of School Transportation and the PAE, respectively, will be carried out.

Herrera assures that the delays are not due to poor planning, but to problems with the Mayor’s financial software, which did not allow the issuance of availability certificates.
To gain time, the PAE team of the Secretariat began the enlistment stage, carrying out verification activities of each one of the restaurants and school kitchens.
“To see what conditions they are in and what they need, in order to be able to provide the service in the shortest time possible,” said Herrera.
Regarding the lack of water, he pointed out that the problem is registered in eight educational institutions, for which a meeting was scheduled with the operating company of the aqueduct service, the competent areas and the members of the union to make decisions and resolve.
Finally, the official indicated that these days an agreement is being negotiated with Findeter for the improvement of school infrastructure, which should house some 60 educational venues of Riohacha.
