PRESS RELEASE

STRIKE LOOMING BY BASIC SCHOOL TEACHERS ASSOCIATION (CBSTA) OVER LONG-AWAITED LAPTOP. 5/8/2022

Even though it left with few days to vacation, the concerned basic teachers association(CBSTA) across the public schools in the country is sending a strong warning to the government especially the Ministry of Education and Ghana Education Service as a matter of urgency to release our much-awaited laptops to us or face our wrath.

If it will be recalled, the government has deducted GHC509.55 represented 30% as the cost of the laptop since last year to add 70% to it to procure one teacher one laptop policy for teachers.

In barely a year, all basic teachers are not given their laptops as promised. And as if the deductions made from our salary were insignificant from others, theirs were long supplied leaving us without any concern.

It becomes so worrying that we the basic teachers seem scammed since nothing basically could be heard from the government concerning the distribution of the laptops. The union leaders equally kept mute over this important issue.

And only God knows why but if they were compromised then they must prepare for this battle from us.

We are sounding a word of caution to the government to release our laptop to us immediately or face our wrath.

It is long overdue.We the concerned basic teachers association do not believe its a scam and so we want our laptop as a matter of urgency.
