UTAG Threatens To Strike Over Unpaid Allowances

The University Teachers Association of Ghana (UTAG) has threatened to embark on a nationwide strike action if the government fails to pay its Book and Research Allowance.
 
According to UTAG, the government has not paid its members in spite of the fact that the necessary documents to facilitate payment have been presented to the appropriate institutions.
 
The Association President, Professor Charles Marfo told NEAT FM’s morning show, 'Ghana Montie', that by the close of the day, September 14, 2020, if the government fails to settle the allowance, they will embark on a strike.
 
“We are tired,” he told host Kwesi Aboagye.
