The African Institute for Higher Technical Training and Research
has had a sad and chequered history since its inception. Its problems
which are well-known include low membership, limited payment of
assessed contributions and lack of staff. Above all it has never
had the right leadership to lift it from its current situation and
imbue it with a new sense of direction. The leadership has lacked
vision and is constantly obssessed with issues other than the long
term goals and objectives of the Institute, It seems very unlikely
that much would be achieved in the next two years without attitudinal
changes should the staff members agree to accept the new two year
fixed term contracts. Indeed, the Director General made it clear
at the close of the meeting that he was dissatisfied with the decision
relating to the renewal of his contract for a period of two years
only instead of four. One is not sure whether he would give of
his best should he decide to stay on.
