Senior Staff Association of Universities of Ghana declares strike effective Sept. 16

The Senior Staff Association of Universities of Ghana has announced a nationwide strike starting Monday, September 16, 2024, due to unresolved issues with their working conditions.

Despite earlier negotiations, the government failed to meet their demands, including the payment of vehicle maintenance allowances and the release of tier 2 pension deductions.

The group had suspended a previous strike in January after government assurances, but they now plan to withdraw all services in public universities, including administrative, security, and hospital services, until their demands are fulfilled.

The strike is expected to disrupt campus operations nationwide.
