I still remember local teachers complaining about me and Ntate Diale. They said that we were the ones who had caused problems in that area. We demanded to address the principals' meetings and clarify issues. From then on Ntate Diale could no longer rest; every school where there was a strike, where there was strife between the civics and the school committees of that time, or the local chief, or whoever was in charge, Ntate Diale and I had to run there to douse the fires.
