The Senior Staff Association of Universities of Ghana says it is counting on the cooperation of the government to address certain proposals presented to them before they will consider calling off the strike of its members.
This followed a meeting among the parties yesterday, Thursday, February 1.
The association, together with the Tertiary Education Workers Union of Ghana (TEWUG), has been on over a week-long strike over the government’s failure to address concerns related to their pensions.
Speaking to Citi News, the National Chairman of the association, Isaac Donkoh, says the strike will persist until the government meets their demands.
“The Association or the unions have made some proposals to the government. The government has taken it in good faith, and they will get back to us in a few days… Until then, the strike is still on. So if they are able to work it out fast, it is better for all of us,” he said.
