The Labour Division of the Accra High Court has put an injunction on the strike by the University Teachers Association of Ghana (UTAG).
The court, presided over by Justice Frank Aboadwe Rockson, on Tuesday afternoon [February 15, 2022] halted the strike which is currently in its fifth week.
The order followed an application for interlocutory injunction by the National Labour Commission(NLC).
Per the orders of the court, UTAG must suspend its strike until the final determination of an application by the NLC, seeking to enforce its orders for UTAG to call off its strike and return to the negotiation table with the government.
Proceedings have thus been adjourned to February 22, 2022, at 1:30pm.
The Executive Secretary of the National Labour Commission, Ofosu Asamoah, in an interview after the hearing, urged UTAG to return to the negotiation table for an amicable resolution of its grievances.
