The Concerned Staff of the Controller and Accountant General’s Department (CAGD) have asked its management and the Finance Ministry to pay them their owed allowances immediately.
According to them, if their honorarium which has been in arrears for two years (2021,2022) is not paid, they will advise themselves.
In a press release issued on Tuesday, January 10, threatened to abstain from the upcoming national accounts validations exercise and the Government of Ghana (GoG) monthly salary validations if their demands are not addressed.
“Having been denied our 2021 honorarium for the first time in the history of CAGD, we the concerned staff of CAGD wish to unequivocally state that any attempts by the Management of CAGD and the Ministry of Finance (MoF) to once again deny our hardworking staff of this age-old ‘solace’ would not be tolerated.
“Staff would be left with no option than to embark on series of legitimate actions, including abstaining from the upcoming national accounts validations exercise and the GoG monthly salary validations, to get this allowance paid us,” excerpts of the statement read.
The Concerned Staff have thus called for an urgent response to the grievances.
“We are by this petition, serving notice to the CAGD Management and the MoF to, as a matter of urgency, get this matter addressed or we advise ourselves.”
“All staff of the sixteen Regions of Ghana are on this date, presenting this letter to our Management and the MoF through the Regional Directors of CAGD, calling on CAGD and MoF to do the needful by paying the two years (2021 & 2022) honorarium with immediate effect to avoid the repercussions of our intended actions,” the statement concluded.
