Africa-Press – Ghana. <\/strong><\/span>The Kumasi chapter of the Coalition of Concerned Teachers of Ghana (CCT Gh.) has given the government and the finance ministry an April 30 ultimatum to pay their accrued funds and welfare dues or face their wrath.<\/b><\/p>\n

In a statement dated Sunday, March 10, the Coalition lamented the struggles its members are facing owing to the government\u2019s \u201ccontinuous delay in releasing our mutual funds and welfare dues deductions.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Coalition noted that the delay in releasing the funds started \u201cabout one and half years ago and it continues to affect all the managers of the Teacher\u2019s unions under the third-party reference system (TPRS) at the Controller and Accountant, General Department (CAGD).\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWe the Coalition of Concerned Teachers, Gh; (CCT, Gh.) in the Kumasi Metropolis wish to unequivocally express our deepest displeasure about the blatant disregard for the welfare of our members as a result of continuous delay in releasing our mutual funds and welfare dues deductions,\u201d the statement in parts read.<\/p>\n

It further indicated that the mutual funds and the welfare dues are critical components of the coalition\u2019s financial security.<\/p>\n

It added that the funds support their members by \u201cproviding a safety and affordable financial loan for we the teachers, as compared to the banks\u2019 loan rate.\u201d<\/p>\n

It, however, blamed the government\u2019s haircut programme for deliberately leaving \u201cmany teachers facing financial uncertainties.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThis unexpected move by the government within this one and half years have sparked outrage within the education community and the livelihood in most of us who recognize the essential role of both the nuclear and the extended families in our society,\u201d it said.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are strongly urging the Financial [Finance] Minister to prioritize the well-being of our dedicated teachers by immediately releasing the withheld mutual funds and welfare dues accrued barely six months to our Fund Managers and the Leadership for the needful things to be done for peace to prevail in the education system. We don\u2019t want to cause any labour unrest to get impact on our lovely students who are already suffering.<\/p>\n

\u201cThus, we are giving the Government and the Minister up to next month ending if these accrued funds and dues are not released hmm, we shall advise ourselves accordingly,\u201d it warned.<\/p>\n

The Coalition therefore urged the government and the finance ministry to address their issue, as any more delays would have \u201ca broader implication for the educational system\u2019s stability and the overall well-being of the students.\u201d<\/p>\n
