Galamsey crisis: UTAG directs members to suspend strike
The National Executive Committee (NEC) of the University Teachers Association of Ghana (UTAG) has directed its members to suspend their ongoing.
This follows several weeks of industrial action that severely disrupted academic activities across public universities nationwide.
UTAG members began their strike on Thursday, 10 October 024, in protest against government’s perceived failure to address the environmental devastation caused by illegal mining, commonly known as galamsey.
The association expressed deep concern over the widespread destruction of river bodies and forest reserves, which they believe poses a long-term threat to the country’s natural resources.
In an official statement, the NEC urged all UTAG members to return to the classroom, allowing students to resume their academic programs after the prolonged break.
