"Erion Veliaj's fraud, Tirana without schools, shift teaching continues"

From Erisa Xixho

In Tirana, classes continue with two shifts due to lack of schools, and there are even areas that don't even have a school at all.

The Municipality of Tirana has budgeted 17 schools, but has built only 9 of them.

Not only has it not fulfilled the plans, but at the pace it is following, it is many years away from fulfilling the capital's need for new schools.

With the number of students it currently has, Tirana needs 21 schools!

This year, the five promised schools for the children of Astir and Kashari, an area with over 70,000 inhabitants, or even the Lake area, are missing again, who will also be forced to travel to the center of Tirana every day this school year. devoting time and money to parents, overloading other schools and their pedagogical staffs and thus damaging the educational process!

Also, in Tirana, 80% of children of nursery and kindergarten age cannot find a place in public structures, so for this reason they are forced to go to private ones, significantly increasing their costs.

The citizens of Tirana will pay rent of up to 9,000 euros per month for the buildings of kindergartens and nurseries, while they have paid 66.1 million euros in education tax in 8 years and today their children do not have a place in kindergarten and learn in shift schools.

Turned into the center of money laundering, where there is room for towers, but no kindergartens, nurseries or schools, the capital does not have the necessary educational infrastructure for its citizens.

From the structured criminal group that runs the Municipality of Tirana today, we cannot expect them to prioritize education, as their priority is the robbery of public property to put it at the service of clients, the construction of towers and the expansion of an unlivable city, especially for the children.

Only in July, 11 permits for towers and 0 new constructions for schools, kindergartens and nurseries were granted by the National Land Regulation Council of Albania, headed by Edi Rama.

Faced with this situation, the citizens of Tirana must stand up and stand up for themselves, their family and their city.
