"I demand an unconditional apology and withdrawal of the TTAG's letter" - Sallah Emmanuel

As a concerned member of the College of Education Teachers Association of Ghana (CETAG), I demand an unconditional apology and withdrawal of the letter from the Teacher Trainees Association of Ghana (TTAG) requesting CETAG members to return to the lecture halls amidst our ongoing strike action.
TTAG's letter is a blatant disregard for our rights and undermines our legitimate demands for better working conditions, fair compensation, and a conducive learning environment. Their actions are divisive and aim to break our resolve.
We will not be swayed or intimidated. We demand respect and solidarity from our fellow education stakeholders, including TTAG. I call on TTAG to: 1. Apologize unconditionally for their letter 2. Withdraw their letter immediately 3. Publicly declare their support for CETAG's demands 4. Join us in demanding meaningful dialogue with the government to address our grievances Anything less would be a betrayal of our shared interests and the future of Ghana's education sector. _Signed,_ Sallah Emmanuel Concerned CETAG Member

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...

"We need TTAG to rather address the government than adressing CETAG" - Tornyegbedo Emmanuel

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 s...
