As a concerned student of Peki College of Education, I humbly ask: What specific action does TTAG expect CETAG to take in addressing the ongoing issues regarding teachers' incentives and the impact on students' education?   I think this is the time we need TTAG to rather address the government than adressing CETAG. TTAG should  protest for the government to pay our lecturers their rightful incentive rather than appealing to CETAG as if they are the ones at fault. Nevertherless I am not trying to be bias.  Imagine if it were to be any other profession that threatened the government with strike, government will not hesitate to settle them but when it comes to teachers, the government will be playing back and forth game with them. The fact that this strike took this long means that first the government does not have any or little regard for the teachers and secondly,  the government does not care about us the students if not,  the government would have sort things out w

The Minister of Employment and Labour Relations, Ignatius Baffour Ewuah, has announced that all issues between the Ministry and the Colleges of Education Teachers Association of Ghana (CETAG) have been resolved.    CETAG had laid down their tools weeks who, demanding improved working conditions and the enforcement of a National Labour Commission (NLC) ruling.  After staying away from work for over a month, CETAG members had their July salary frozen by the Ghana Tertiary Education Commission (GTEC).  However, after engaging in discussions and signing a Memorandum of Understanding, the Minister stated that all outstanding issues have been settled, and the teachers have agreed to return to class.  The Minister acknowledged that delays in processing teachers' certificates were due to necessary audits and verification processes. He emphasized the importance of handling labor issues satisfactorily and being proactive in managing such issues.  The Mi

  Members and leadership of the Colleges of Education Teachers Association of Ghana (CETAG) remain defiant despite threats of salary freezes by their employers . In an interview on JoyNews, a member of CETAG’s national communications team, Fedilis Kamaayi said they remain resolute in their over six-week strike in demand of better conditions of service.   According to him, CETAG members were aware that freezing salaries was one of the strategies the employers were going to deploy to get them to call off their strike, therefore they were prepared for it. “When the directive was issued, it has even motivated and gingered most of our tutors and they are saying that they should even take the August salary in addition because until all the arbitrary awards are implemented, they can go ahead and continue to freeze the salaries,” he said. Mr Kamaayi added that the members have psyched themselves for what is to happen next. His comments follow the Minister of Education's d

  The Teacher Trainees’ Association of Ghana (TTAG) has urged the government to take prompt action in resolving the ongoing strike by the Colleges of Education Teachers Association of Ghana (CETAG). CETAG Strike Continues as Government Fails to Honor Agreement Despite reaching a deal with employers, CETAG claims the government has not signed off, rendering the agreement invalid. CETAG President Prince Obeng-Himang vows to sustain the industrial action until the government fulfills its commitment. In a press conference on July 29, a TTAG representative expressed dismay and frustration, citing the government's inaction as a broken promise. The representative questioned why the government has not taken concrete steps to resolve the issue, despite earlier assurances. “Government has been assuring us of action. Now, we don’t need any assurance. All we need is action to solve this strike,” the representative emphasised. TTAG called on the government to immediately sign the Me

BACKGROUND   Ongoing Dispute Over Teachers' Service Conditions: 2021 Negotiations Unresolved 1. In August, 2021, Colleges of Education Teachers Association of Ghana (CETAG) and Fair Wages and Salaries Commission (FWSC) started negotiations on Conditions of Service (CoS) to be concluded in November, 2021 and take effect from January 2022. 2. FWSC deliberately delayed the negotiations which led to a strike action by CETAG in December, 2021. 3. On 10th January, 2023, GTEC invited CETAG leadership to a meeting to discuss the issues which led to the strike action.   4. CETAG called off the strike action immediately after the meeting because the government team gave assurance that FWSC shall resume the negotiations and conclude immediately. 5. Sadly, after CETAG called off the strike in January 2022, the FWSC continued to deliberately delay the negotiations which led to another strike action by CETAG in December 2022.  6. On 7th December, 2022, the Hon. Minister of Educat
