Release Frozen Salaries Of Teachers Latest By Friday Or Face Our Wrath – Nagrat Warns
Release Frozen Salaries Of Teachers by Friday Or Face Our Wrath Is The Latest Warning From Nagrat. But what led to these warnings?
The National Association of Graduate Teachers (NAGRAT) has issued a two-day ultimatum to the Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP), demanding the immediate release of frozen salaries for more than 400 teachers.
President Angel Carbonu emphasized that the salaries must be unfrozen by Friday or face severe consequences from the association.
NAGRAT alleges that the OSP has arbitrarily withheld the salaries of these teachers while purportedly investigating ghost names on the government’s payroll. Carbonu contends that ongoing audits should not serve as sufficient justification to withhold salaries without conclusive evidence of wrongdoing. He stressed that until the audit process is completed and it is conclusively determined that certain individuals are not qualified to receive salaries, their payments should not be withheld.

During an interview on NewsNite, Carbonu expressed the association’s frustration with the OSP’s actions, stating that the focus should be on prosecuting individuals involved in corruption, rather than targeting innocent teachers. He warned that if the salaries are not released by the specified deadline, the OSP would bear responsibility for any repercussions that follow.
This ultimatum underscores NAGRAT’s commitment to protecting the rights and interests of its members, particularly in ensuring timely payment of salaries. The association remains resolute in its stance and is prepared to take further action if the OSP fails to comply with their demands.
The National Association of Graduate Teachers (NAGRAT) is a trade union representing school and college teachers in Ghana. They promote and protect the rights and interests of the child, as well as place the services of the Association at the disposal of individuals, public bodies and other organizations in pursuit of education. The Government of Ghana permitted the formation on the condition that it was registered as a voluntary association, not a trade union. On formation, the union had 24,384 members
