Education Minister assures TUTAG of Book and Research Allowance payment by end of September
Education Minister Haruna Iddrisu has assured the Technical University Teachers’ Association of Ghana (TUTAG) that the 2025/2026 Book and Research Allowance will be paid by the end of September 2026. This follows concerns raised by the Association over delays in the payment of the allowance, which had threatened industrial action.
Iddrisu informed the media that around 8,000 TUTAG members had been cleared to receive the allowance and reiterated the government's commitment to supporting academic work and research at technical universities. He appealed to TUTAG members to remain calm and reconsider any plans for industrial action, assuring them that all necessary administrative processes for the release of the allowance had been completed.
