Students of the Colleges of Education across the country have been left to cook for themselves over the indefinite strike action by the Non-Teaching Staff of the colleges.

Students have been left stranded and have to undertake all grounds work intended for the workers on strike.

The workers have laid down their tools since April 11, 2022 on five major issues which the government and the Labor Commission have failed to meet their conditions of service. These conditions include: Failure to place First Degree Holders at Point 17 instead at Point 16, Migration Arrears, Generic Allowances, Non-Payment of Office Holding Allowances and Non-payment of Interim Market Premium Arrears.

Speaking to Sompa FM's Reporter Benjamin Kusi on Tuesday, April 12, 2022, the Dining Hall Prefect of Wesley College in Kumasi, Quainooh Enoch shared displeasure and frustrations the students have to endure to cook for their other colleagues in the midst of preparing for exams.

Local Chairman of the Wesley College Chapter of the Non-Teaching Staff, Mr. Kwame Nkrumah Lepoah, explained how members of the institution have corporate with the decision to fight for better conditions of service.

He lamented that their members have had issues with the interim staff who stepped in to provide some of the services and insisted they would monitor and send those workers out in order to demand better conditions from the government.
