Teacher unions threaten to go on strike again over conditions of service

Four teacher organizations in public universities in Ghana have given the government up till Wednesday, October 5 to restore their conditions of service as decided early this year or they discontinue their services.

The National President of the University Teachers Association of Ghana (UTAG), Professor Solomon Nunoo, stated at a press conference on Wednesday, September 28.

UTAG, together with the Ghana Association of University Administrators (GAUA), Tertiary Education Workers Union of Ghana (TEWU–GH), and the Senior Staff Association of Universities of Ghana (SSA–UoG) met to express their displeasure at the apparent unilateral decisions taken by the government in differing their conditions of service.

They say letters written to draw attention to the anomalies have not been responded to.

The teacher unions have hence taken the decision to lay down their tools after October 5 if government fails to heed their concerns.
