A newly trained Ghanaian teacher from the 2022 batch of Colleges of Education graduates has lambasted a police officer for allegedly threatening to assault teachers who staged a protest at the Ghana Education Service (GES) headquarters in Accra on Monday, June 23, 2025.

The demonstration was in response to delayed staff identification numbers and months of unpaid salaries.

According to the frustrated teacher, who hails from the Northern Region and has been working for the GES for the past ten months without pay, the situation has severely affected his livelihood.

He lamented that he is burdened with debts and daily living expenses, making life increasingly difficult.
