A statement said students of the universities have been hardest hit by the UTAG strike. In a letter dated 15th July 2021, the government was given adequate notice of an industrial action UTAG threatened to embark on should their demands not be met satisfactorily. The intended industrial action subsequently materialized after the Akufo-Addo/Bawumia government failed to address the concerns of UTAG. The students of our universities have been hardest hit by this strike as a result of the serious ramifications emanating from the decision by UTAG. A win for UTAG is salvation for our professionals, a win for UTAG is salvation for intellectualism and industrial development.
