Ghana: UTAG to suspend its strike if court action is withdrawn

After an agreement with the Ghanaian government, the University Teachers Association of Ghana (UTAG) is expected to cancel its strike.

The association has been asking the government the restoration of service conditions agreed upon with the government in 2012.

The teacher’s association started an indefinite strike last Monday denouncing poor conditions of service and the failure of the government to resolve long standing grievance.
