CETAG pulls out of meeting with Education Ministry over protracted strike

The Colleges of Education Teachers Association of Ghana (CETAG) has withdrawn from a meeting with the Education Ministry on July 26, citing the absence of a signed agreement from the Finance Ministry.

CETAG, on strike since June 14 for better conditions of service, expected a signed document to facilitate discussions.

Despite a government salary freeze aimed at forcing them back to work, CETAG remains resolute, willing to forfeit salaries for two more months if necessary.

CETAG’s National Communications Officer, Fedilis Kamaayi, acknowledged the strike's negative impact on students but emphasized its necessity to achieve their demands.

Resolution depends on the government's response.
