Teachers in all thirty eight (38) Public Colleges of Education(CETAG) have declared an indefinite strike beginning today to protest what they say is government’s delays to migrate them onto a desired salary structure.
CETAG said for two years the Finance and Employment Ministries have denied them what their colleagues in other Tertiary institutions are enjoying by showing lack of commitment to migrate the tutors to a requisite placement in tertiary dispensation according to the dictates of ACT 847.
The National Secretary of the Colleges of Education Teachers Association, Prince Obeng Heman said government’s aloofness towards their concerns compelled them to strike.
“From 2012 up to this time, our employers- the Ministry of education and extension government not being able to migrate us to where we are supposed to be, we feel that they’re not being fair to us,” he said.
The strike would affect teaching in all the institutions across the country.
