The University Teachers Association of Ghana (UTAG) and the Administering Board of the College of Instruction, Winneba (UEW), are requesting the prompt evacuation of the Chairman of the overseeing board of the College, Nana Ofori Ansah I. 

 

 

They are too calling on government and the Service of Instruction to mediate and, with quick impact, guarantee a withdrawal of the ‘ill-conceived and unilaterally’ composed letter ending the arrangement of the Fund Officer.

 

Agreeing to them, the brief rule of the chamber chairman has been nothing but divisive, authoritarian, and definitive with an unbridled affinity for employing a bulldozer approach to seek after a covered up motivation.

 

In a joint press discharge marked by the President of UTAG and Conference Agent on the Administering Board of UEW, Eric Sakyi Nketiah, and the President of GAUA and Assembly Agent on the Administering Committee, Dr.  Beth Offei-Awuku, the gather expressed decidedly that such authoritative infractions by the Committee Chairman have never happened within the history of the College nor known to have occasioned in any of the sister open colleges in Ghana.

“We, subsequently, call on the Government through the Serve of Instruction to quickly, in arrange to cultivate peace, solidarity and genuine compromise, call the Chairman of Committee and the Bad habit-Chancellor to arrange to turn away any catastrophic event that might damage the quiet environment. We assist call on the government through the Serve and other offices to induce to the ground for a reality-finding mission to find out the reality and not to deliver in to double dealings and lies from any quarters who for self-evident egotistical interface might paint an totally distinctive picture,” the articulation said.

 

The two bodies are too requesting the quick holding of the assembly decisions to choose agents to the Chamber without encourage delay and called on the Bad habit-Chancellor to pull back the letter that has looked for to delay the decisions inconclusively.  

 

 

“There's by and by, confined-up sentiments of fuming outrage among colleague staff such that any delay or disappointment on the portion of the Government/Serve to act quickly may result in inner blast and chaos which would make the institution ungovernable.”

 

Underneath is the total articulation marked by the President of UTAG and Conference Agent on Administering Chamber, Eric Sakyi Nketiah and President of GAUA and Conference Agent on Overseeing Board, Dr.  Beth Offei-Awuku.

 

Joint press explanation by UEW Conference Agents on Committee on later happenings within the College and on the conduct of the Chairman of the Administering Board, Nana Ofori-Ansah I

 

 

This Press Articulation has been required by later improvements within the College of Instruction, Winneba, over the period of the reconstitution of the modern UEW Administering Committee beneath the chairmanship of Nana Ofori Ansah I, and relating to occasions instantly going before and after the Winneba Tall Court ruled on the restoration of a few expelled staff of UEW.

 

This Courtruling with its noteworthy orders, over the last few weeks, has come about in a few infractions with distinctive elucidations put on the administering or orders as issued by the Court and the way and way the Overseeing Committee of the College, particularly through its Chairman, has taken care of the issues. The result of the different activities taken by the Chairman of the Overseeing Chamber has cleared out so much to be craved. The Chairman’s activities have made unease, pressure, and disarray inside the College.

 

Indeed in spite of the fact that it had been the wish of the College that the implementation of the Court orders would have been carried out easily to bring around peace, solidarity, and compromise, the hurried implementation of the orders designed by the Chairman without any stakeholder engagement and discussion and the noteworthy substances on the ground point to the truth that the Chairman has tossed the College into more perplexity than he acquired.

 

 

The result is that within the past few weeks, one issue after another radiating from a arrangement of letters and discharges from the Chairman since the restoration prepare was started unilaterally by him has driven to grinding, contrasts, encounters and misconception between the Chairman and a few Central Officers of the College, particularly the substantive Fund Officer; between the Bad habit-Chancellor and the substantive Fund Officer; between the previous Back Officer and the occupant Back Officer; between Chamber Chairman and the Back Officer; and, between the Chairman and the Enlistment center.

 

These genuine issues of contrasts between a few individuals of Administration and the Chairman of the Administering Committee based on the Chairman’s possess unilateral and bulldozer approach to fathoming issues ought to be tended to expeditiously something else, they seem spell fate for the institution since of the unnecessary pressure brewing within the College. 

 

Undoubtedly, certain directives and choices relative to arrangements, reassignments and end of arrangement have been taken unilaterally without due plan of action or reference to laid down rules and controls revered within the College of Instruction Act 2004 (Act 672) and the Statutes. These directives, most of which emanate from the Board Chairman but do not take after due handle and method, require critical consideration and determination.
