UG: Students Accounts Office to resume on Tuesday February 2

The Students Accounts Office at the University of Ghana has stated that it will resume this week after more than a week of closure.

The closure of the office was due to the nationwide strike embarked on by the Senior Staff Association of the Universities of Ghana over outstanding Tier-2 contributions of its retired members.

A notice sighted by UniversNews in front of the office indicated that it will reopen on Tuesday, February 2, 2021.

It is however unclear when other offices run by the Senior Staff members will resume.
