All 46 training colleges’ CETAG members have been on strike since August 1, following the government’s failure to comply with the NLC’s Arbitral Award Orders and negotiated conditions of service since May 2, 2023. 

Despite sending multiple notices to the Ministry of Finance, the agreed negotiations have not been implemented.

Speaking to Citi News, President of CETAG Prince Obeng Himah said they are going into the meeting with an open mind.

“We have been consistent from day one. We are honouring the meeting and our expectations will be that, NLC will be geared towards enforcing its own laws or getting the government to comply with the directives.”

“We do not want to go in within perceived minds. But we are clear, that will be our expectation going into that meeting,” he noted.
