Following an emergency meeting on Tuesday, July 23, 2024, the Colleges of Education Teachers Association of Ghana (CETAG) has announced the withdrawal of all services across their campuses.
This decision reflects the Association’s determination to take decisive action in pursuit of its goals.
“In an emergency meeting of National Council today, 23rd July 2024, council members took a unanimous decision to withdraw all our services which include attendance to meetings, congregation ceremonies, and provision of academic counseling services as well as supervision of students in the halls of residence with immediate effect until further notice,” an excerpt of their press release said.
The Association further indicated that the decision is in response to the directive on Monday 22, 2024, by the Ghana Tertiary Education Commission (GTEC) and the Controller and Accountant General not to validate the July 2024 salaries of the teaching staff of the 46 public colleges of education due to our ongoing legal strike.
