The National Association of Graduate Teachers (NAGRAT) has  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.

NAGRAT argued  that despite her credentials, she is not suited for the role.

Speaking to the media, NAGRAT’s National President, Angel Carbonu, called on the government to reverse the decision

“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 Services 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 the technical universities, but certainly not in the Ghana Education Service.”
