The Ghana National Association of Teachers (GNAT) has described the nationwide strike by the Coalition of Concerned Teachers,(CCT) as illegal and has warned its members against participating.
The Coalition of Concerned Teachers which has over 50 thousand members is striking over the failure of government to pay its members’ incremental credit arrears, capitation grant, and car maintenance following their migration unto the Single Spine Salary Structure (SSS).
The Coalition has also accused President Mahama of reneging on a promise to resolve their concerns.
But speaking to Citi News, Deputy General Secretary in charge of Administration and Labour Relations, Awotwi Nkansah said GNAT had confidence in the government’s commitment toward resolving their outstanding issues.
He also asked the Coalition to resume work while government takes measures to address their grievances.
“We are pleading with our members not to lay down their tools. We need to give the briefing space that the government has appealed for.”
