  "summary": "The Controller and Accountant-General’s Department (CAGD) in Ghana has announced that it has fully processed and paid 6,079 cases related to promoted teachers, including their promotion arrears. This development comes amid a nationwide strike declared by the National Association of Graduate Teachers (NAGRAT), the Ghana National Association of Teachers (GNAT), and the Pre-Tertiary Teachers Association of Ghana (PRETAG) over issues such as unpaid promotion arrears and delays in negotiations regarding their conditions of service. The CAGD revealed that these 6,079 cases constitute part of the 58,620 promotion cases expected from the Ghana Education Service (GES). The department noted that GES submitted the 6,079 completed input forms and corresponding promotion letters by September 22, 2026, which facilitated the validation and processing of these cases.",
