  "summary": "The Savannah College of Education has issued an apology to the Ghana Tertiary Education Commission (GTEC) for an illegal sit-down strike declared by staff on October 27, 2026, and suspended on November 1. In a letter dated November 5, 2026, the college acknowledged weaknesses in its internal processes that contributed to the escalation of the industrial action. The management expressed regret over the disruption caused to GTEC, the Ministry of Education, students, parents, and other stakeholders. The apology, signed by Acting Registrar Muftau-Kola Fasasi, also commended GTEC for its intervention during the strike and pledged to improve institutional discipline and ensure staff welfare matters are handled through appropriate channels. The college assured GTEC of its commitment to transparent and timely resolution of migration process and related matters, as well as strengthening internal communication to prevent a recurrence of similar industrial action.",
