He said as far as teachers were concerned, majority of them have not gone to the classroom and should continue till they had a consensus with the government.
He mentioned that the government has to deal with the fair wages and salary before they can negotiate with the fair wages and salary because they are the mouthpiece of the people but added that refusal to do that will worsen the case.
Mr. Awudu-Ali told Frontline that their executives were out to some regions to verify if the strike action had gone far, adding, regions like the Ashanti, Brong Ahafo Region and Volta Regions are indeed on strike and that shows that majority of teachers are with them and their decisions should be respected.
He however noted that they refused to adhere to the call by the Chief Justice because they believe that they were not the right people to talk things over with them but rather it was the responsibility of the Fair Wages and Salaries Commission.
Mr. Awudu- Ali therefore asked all teachers to keep on supporting their leaders to use the right means to get them sorted to prevent any future occurrence.
