General News of Sunday, 11 September 2016Source: 3news.comGES teachers declare indefinite strike from Monday Sept 12Prof. Naana Jane Opoku-Agyeman, Education MinisterTeachers in all thirty eight (38) Public Colleges of Education have declared an indefinite strike effective Monday September 12 over what they describe as “unduly delayed migration” to be able to draw salaries as tutors from other tertiary institution. The National Executives Committee of the Colleges of Education Teachers Association of Ghana took the decision after a meeting resolved to implement the strike following what they described as unfruitful meetings and deliberations with government. So we think that they have not shown any strong commitment of doing it that. Mr. Heman further indicated that “we take this as a strike of our lives, a strike of destiny and we are prepared to stretch up to the limit until we are migrated. When we see the payment reflect in our bank accounts, that is when we would reconsider our decision.”
