He said, “TEWU demands immediate payment of the tier 2 pension funds by the government to the fund management.”

The group’s leadership contends that addressing the terms and conditions of service is crucial for ensuring effective work delivery from the workers’ union.

The group accuses the government of Ghana of paying mere lip service to their concerns.
In response to the perceived neglect of TEWU members in traditional universities, the group is set to embark on an indefinite strike starting from February 1, extending until their demands are adequately addressed.
