TEWU-GH, KNUST Local urges suspension of Registrar vacancy declaration; calls on GTEC to intervene over premature retirement concerns

The Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST) branch of the Teachers and Educational Workers Union (TEWU-GH) is raising red flags over what it describes as a premature and questionable move to declare the position of Registrar vacant.

Speaking during a press engagement, Chairman of TEWU-GH KNUST Local, Charles Arthur, called for the immediate suspension of the advertised vacancy, scheduled for August 2025, citing ongoing concerns that the incumbent registrar is being forcibly pushed into early leave ahead of their official retirement date.

According to the union, the current registrar is expected to retire on October 31, 2025, and any move to declare the post vacant before that date is not only irregular but also undermines established administrative procedures and worker rights.

“We want to State that per this advert and record published, KNUST is going to have two Registrars from 1st August to 31st October, 2025. Union further states that this is negligence on the part of the university’s Governing Council which has never occurred in the history of the university before.”

The union further contends that this action may be an attempt to manipulate the succession process and is urging the Ghana Tertiary Education Commission (GTEC) to immediately intervene to ensure transparency, fairness, and adherence to laid-down procedures.

Sources within the university suggest growing tension among staff who fear that such unilateral administrative decisions may signal broader issues of governance and staff welfare at KNUST.

TEWU-GH KNUST Local insists that allowing the incumbent registrar to serve his full term until the stipulated retirement date will maintain institutional stability and foster respect for due process.

“The union calls on the Minister of Education and the Director General of GTEC to immediately intervene by suspending all processes leading to the appointment of the Registrar and set up a committee to investigate,” he said.

As of now, the university administration has not publicly responded to the concerns raised by the union.
