Government run youth vocational training centre Mount View College is reported to have lost sponsorship from key donors after it introduced the National Youth Service which is also known as the Border Gezi programme. College principal, Patrick Karambwe confirmed that the institution had lost sponsorship although he denied that they running the Border Gezi Programme. He blamed the media for the withdrawal of the funds saying that it was peddling lies about his institution.
Recently, we encountered published lies from the private media that our vocational training institute has closed technical training for militia training.
These are lies peddled by the private media with a hidden agenda to tarnish the vocational training centre’s image.
Sponsors have even withdrawn their sponsorship as result of the adverse media reports.
However, sources at the centre disputed the principal’s assertions.
