The National Association of Graduate Teachers (NAGRAT) has strongly opposed the appointment of former Koforidua Technical University Vice-Chancellor, Professor Smile Gavua Dzisi, as Deputy Director-General for Management Services at the Ghana Education Service (GES).
According to NAGRAT, although she has impressive credentials, she is unfit for the position.
In an interview with Citi News, the National President of NAGRAT, Angel Carbonu, called on the government to withdraw the appointment.
“The person who was removed from that position was a professional teacher who rose to the rank of a regional director and was appointed as Director of Management Services. The Ghana Education Service is not an extension of a political office.
“It is a professional institution. It is within the public service, and we will not tolerate the appointment of somebody who is not a practitioner within the service space.
“We are calling on the government to withdraw the appointment immediately. She is a professor. She operates very well in the university or technical universities but certainly not in the Ghana Education Service,” Carbonu stated, as quoted by citinewsroom.com.
