Education Minister commends UTAG for its stands against galamsey

Education Minister Haruna Iddrisu has commended the University Teachers Association of Ghana (UTAG) for remaining steadfast in its demand for the government to combat illegal mining.

His remarks come as the union considers whether to declare a strike, following the expiration of a three-month ultimatum issued to the government in July.

Speaking at the 22nd Biennial Congress of UTAG in Aburi, the Education Minister highlighted the critical nature of the fight against illegal mining and encouraged the union to stay resolute in its efforts.

Addressing UTAG, the Minister said, “Professor Chair, I cannot assume my seat once again without praising you, UTAG, for your principled position on galamsey. We will continue to advocate for the good of our country; we need quality air to breathe, and we need quality water to drink.”

He added, “Don’t waver in demanding that right be done and that the country succeed in our fight against galamsey.”

Meanwhile, UTAG is holding a critical meeting today to determine its next course of action as the three-month ultimatum given to the government to tackle illegal mining comes to an end this week.

In a press statement issued in July this year, the National Executive Council (NEC) of UTAG expressed deep dissatisfaction with the government’s slow response to the illegal mining crisis.

The statement, signed by National President Prof. Mamudu Akudugu and National Secretary Prof. Eliasu Mumuni following an emergency NEC meeting on Thursday, July 17, warned of potential industrial action if decisive measures were not implemented promptly.

Speaking in an interview with JoyNews’ Fatawa Bayaga on Tuesday, September 30, Prof. Akudugu explained the next steps by the university lecturers.
