The President of the National Association of Graduate Teachers (NAGRAT), Angel Carbonu, has said he will be disappointed in government if the intended strike by Organised Labour goes through.
According to him, the strike action expected to start on October 10, 2024, is a terrible thing Ghanaians wouldn’t want to experience.
In an interview on Asempa FM Ekosii Sen programme Tuesday, Mr Carbonu pointed out that about 36 groups make up the Organised Labour.
In this regard, a decision by all or most of these groups to partake in the strike will adversely impact the economy.
Emphasising that the government knows what must be done to avert the strike, Mr Carbonu charged relevant authorities to act swiftly.
“This strike will not be like NAGRAT or any other association going on strike. It will be terrible and I will be disappointed if government allows this strike to go on.
“I have a lot of friends in government, I have spoken with them and they know what to do to avert the situation,” he said.
Following the announcement of the strike, President Akufo-Addo on October 3 pleaded with the labour union to reconsider the strike.
However, Organised Labour has maintained its decision to proceed, citing the government’s failure to provide concrete assurances.
