The Secretary of the University of Ghana chapter of UTAG, Prof. Ransford Gyampo, has asked President Akufo-Addo to back his words with action as far as addressing their challenges is concerned.

The President speaking at the National Labour Conference on Monday, February 28, 2022, at Kwahu Nkwatia, in the Eastern Region said, “government is determined to find a satisfactory solution to this impasse, and ensure that the academic calendar is not, substantially, derailed . . . the best forms of negotiations are those in which both parties to the dispute exhibit good faith within the context of what is affordable and equitable”.

“I continue to hope that our dons will see this in that light, and help bring the impasse to an end so that the education of our young people can resume in serenity,” he added.

Prof Gyampo in an interview with Kwami Sefa Kayi on Peace FM‘s morning show ‘Kokrokoo‘ commended the President for breaking his silence but urged that it should not be mere rhetoric.

“President Akufo-Addo should be able to add this to his legacy that in his tenure, the issues of civil servants not only UTAG were addressed. It’s good that he’s spoken to the issue but we hope it will not just end there”.
