The strike by the Colleges of Education Teachers Association of Ghana (CETAG) has now entered its third week, with colleges likely to shut down if the government fails to meet their demands.

A visit by Channel One News at the Evangelical Presbyterian College of Education in Bimbilla in the Northern Region, saw some students idling and playing games.

By law, if it exceeds twenty-one days, the schools will have to close down. The government has yet to reach an agreement with the lecturers, leaving students to feel the impact.

Currently, third-year students are supposed to be doing their teaching practice in various schools.

In an interview with Channel One News the students complained that they are left to their fate in the schools, with no supervision from the teachers.

First-year students are also lamented of being affected. The strike began just a week after they reported, and they were yet to receive the course outline from the teachers. As a result, they are left wondering around campus.

End-of-semester exams were supposed to be conducted, but the students are uncertain about their fate as no lectures have taken place. Despite this, some students are seen studying on their own.

The students are appealing to the government to listen to the lecturers and address their concerns.

Some students told Channel One News that they face other challenges, such as financial difficulties, as they have spent all their money buying data bundles for online studies.
