The Civil and Local Government Staff Association of Ghana (CLOGSAG) has backed calls by the striking teacher unions who want the newl;y appointed acting Ghana Education Service Director to be removed.
CLOGSAG, in a statement said, “Similar appointments in the Civil Service and the Local Government Service are not conducive for industrial harmony.”
CLOGSAG cited, for example, the legal challenge to the appointment of the Registrar at the Births and Deaths Registry.
As a result, the union urged the government to follow provisions for appointing public officers in order for “industrial peace to prevail.”
“It is significant to note that the appointment of public officers vested in the president should be in accordance with the advice of the governing council of the service concerned, given in consultation with the Public Services Commission.”
