A group of 784 newly posted teachers from the 2022 batch of College of Education graduates will stage a protest at the Ghana Education Service (GES) headquarters on Monday, June 23, over the non-payment of salaries and delays in staff ID issuance.
The teachers, who were appointed on August 1, 2024, say they have not received any salary for the past ten months, despite repeated follow-ups with GES officials.
“We’ve worked for 10 months now without pay. We don’t even have staff IDs. Every time we visit GES, they offer excuses. It’s too much—we’re suffering,” lamented Solomon Opoku Gyan, a member of the group, in an interview with Citi News.
He revealed that the prolonged financial strain has had a severe impact on members, with some reportedly passing away due to hardship.
The group is calling on the GES to take immediate action to address their grievances and regularize their employment. They insist the picketing will continue until concrete steps are taken.
