Students of the Kumasi Technical University (KsTU) have also joined the chorus in appealing to TUTAG to end their strike.
According to the students, failure by the government to resolve the concerns of the Association has resulted in these strike actions which is affecting their academic calendar.
Some of the students spoke to Citi News after a peaceful protest on campus:
“It’s about three weeks now since we haven’t been in class. We came to school to learn. We’ve paid school fees but we’re not being taught. We need our lecturers back. We want to go back to the lecture halls. That’s the university statutes. After 21 working days, if no lectures are in place, the school will be closed down. We don’t want that. We’ve paid school fees,” one gentleman said.
“It’s really affecting us and we’re pleading with the government to attend to TUTAG because since we are not in class, students are roaming about and some are going home,” a lady lamented.
Another continued: “We’re neither on TUTAG or government’s side. What we are pleading for is that peace will reign so that we’ll go back to the lecture halls.”
