Newly recruited teachers picket GES over 14 months unpaid salaries

Newly recruited teachers from the 2024 cohort are picketing at the headquarters of the Ghana Education Service (GES), demanding the release of their Staff Identification Numbers and the payment of outstanding salaries and allowances. The teachers say they have worked for 14 months without pay due to delays in the processing and issuance of their Staff IDs. “We have worked for 14 months without pay” Speaking on behalf of the group, Daniel Aidoo said all required documentation was submitted to their respective District and Regional Directors shortly after recruitment. However, subsequent follow-ups revealed that the documents had been forwarded to the national office for processing, where the delays have persisted. Despite what they describe as repeated assurances from authorities, the affected teachers insist no concrete steps have been taken to resolve the issue. They are now appealing directly to the […]

Kofi Kapito criticises voter inducement in NDC Ayawaso East primaries

The Chief Executive Officer of the Consumer Protection Agency, Kofi Kapito, has criticised the practice of distributing food and other incentives to voters during political primaries, describing it as unethical and harmful to Ghana’s democratic process. Speaking on Joy News AM about voter inducement in party primaries, Kapito stressed that the issue cuts across political lines. “It’s not just an NDC thing. It’s a Ghana thing,” he said. He acknowledged that certain technical interpretations may allow such practices but warned that public perception tells a different story. “When the masses don’t buy the technicalities, it becomes a problem,” he noted. Ethics and accountability Kapito argued that the deeper issue is a broader ethical deficit in the country. He questioned what happens to the principles taught in schools once people leave formal education. “At the university, they teach ethics. The question […]

Jinapor Criticises 24-Hour Economy Bill, Says Policy Has Created No Jobs

Member of Parliament for Damongo, Samuel Abu Jinapor, has sharply criticised the government’s proposed 24-Hour Economy Authority Bill, arguing that the flagship policy has failed to deliver jobs nearly a year into the administration. Speaking during parliamentary consideration of the bill on Thursday, February 5, Mr. Jinapor said the much-touted three-shift, eight-hour work system remains largely theoretical and has not translated into meaningful employment for Ghana’s unemployed youth. “Eleven months into the NDC administration, their flagship programme of a 24-hour economy, with the three-shift system for unemployed Ghanaian youth, the only place working some form of shifts today is the Office of the Speaker of Parliament, and even that is not a full 24-hour operation,” he stated. Questions Over New Authority Mr. Jinapor questioned the rationale behind establishing a new authority to supervise the policy, warning that it risks duplicating […]

Korle Bu Laboratory Workers Begin Strike, Full Shutdown Planned

Medical laboratory professionals at Korle Bu Teaching Hospital have commenced a phased industrial action that could severely disrupt healthcare delivery at Ghana’s largest referral facility, with a complete shutdown of laboratory services expected next week. The Korle Bu chapter of the Medical Laboratory Professional Workers’ Union (MELPWU) began a sit-down strike on Wednesday, February 4, 2026, significantly scaling down laboratory operations across the hospital. Phased Strike Already Disrupting Diagnostic Services The first phase of the industrial action, which runs until Sunday, February 8, has already restricted access to critical diagnostic services for thousands of patients. In a strike notice signed by Chapter Chairman John Kofi Nakoja, union members were directed to suspend all Outpatient Department (OPD) laboratory services during this period.

Ghana to Reinstate Salaries of Over 2,000 Public Workers After Payroll Verification

The Controller and Accountant-General’s Department (CAGD) has announced that the salaries of more than 2,000 public sector workers that were temporarily suspended will be reinstated once their employment status is verified and clearance procedures with the Ghana Audit Service are completed. The Department explained that the salary suspension followed recommendations by the Auditor-General and was implemented in accordance with Public Financial Management (PFM) regulations, which mandate strict monitoring of government payroll systems.

NDC Kpandai Leadership Disowns Protest After Supreme Court Quashes Rerun Elections

The Constituency Secretary of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) in Kpandai, Nyong Robert Saparku, has formally distanced the party’s local leadership from a recent demonstration staged by some party supporters following the Supreme Court’s decision to quash the rerun elections in the constituency. Speaking in an interview with Adom News and through an official statement, Mr. Saparku clarified that the protest was neither organised nor sanctioned by the recognized constituency executives of the NDC. According to him, the party operates under a clearly defined leadership structure at the constituency level, and any political action taken outside that framework cannot be attributed to the party. “The leadership of the National Democratic Congress in Kpandai wishes to state, for the record, that the party has a recognized leadership structure at the constituency level, and this must be respected at all times,” he […]

Kwabena Agyepong Criticises Clergy Prophecies in NPP Primaries

New Patriotic Party presidential aspirant, Ing. Kwabena Agyei Agyepong, has sharply criticised religious leaders who publicly predict outcomes of the party’s presidential primaries, describing their actions as inappropriate and misplaced. Speaking to JoyNews, Agyepong questioned why pastors and prophets are increasingly inserting themselves into partisan political contests, particularly through prophetic declarations about election winners. “They are supposed to be preachers, preaching the gospel. I don’t know what business they have dabbling in politics. I find it very strange,” he said. According to Agyepong, churches are drifting away from their core mission as political discussions creep into religious spaces. He expressed concern that sermons and church gatherings are now being used to debate presidential outcomes rather than spiritual matters. “You go to church and people are now discussing who will be president. Is that the work of a minister?” he asked. […]
