A female teacher could not hide her emotions when she was invited to Onua TV to talk about the ongoing strike action declared by NAGRAT, TEWU, GNAT and CCT.
The woman, who appears to have gone through a lot of suffering and hardship due to the poor conditions of service and remuneration of teachers, was expressing her view on the strike action when she got emotional.
She quickly got up from her seat, sat on the bare floor, raised her hand in the air, and rained curses in advance, on any union leader who might dare take bribes from the government and then come back to tell the poor and suffering teachers to return to the classroom.
According to her, the problems of Ghanaians teachers are partly blamable on their union leaders, some of whom allegedly betray the rest by using the backdoor to take financial packages from government officials, while the ordinary teachers continue to wallow in poverty.
She added that it is only when the cash packages they allegedly took from officialdom finish that they clandestinely declare another strike, but teachers hardly benefit from such actions.
She cursed, saying that any union leader, be it of the Ghana National Association of Teachers (GNAT), the National Association of Graduate Teachers (NAGRAT), the Coalition of Concerned Teachers (CCT), or Teachers & Educational Workers’ Union (TEWU), who dares betray the suffering teachers this time around for their parochial interests, will have the gods of the land to contend with.
