Women in Zimbabwe arrested for protesting inequitable schools.

Four women were arrested for protesting schools that are turning away poor children that are unable to pay their school fees.

The women were part of a group involved in a community based protest aimed at both Government and Council schools, which have continued to turn away children for non-payment of fees.

The women delivered messages to schools in Bulawayo and Harare requesting that Headmasters stop sending children away for non-payment of fees.
In Chitungwiza, over 200 women visited three schools, namely Fungisai Government, Farai Council and Seke High Schools.

I mean that is pretty low.
