Bolgatanga Municipal Secretary of the Ghana National Association of Teachers (GNAT), Abdul-Latif Alhassan has revealed that teachers who are part of GNAT will benefit from a free cancer treatment. He explained that GNAT is partnering with a Swedish Foundation to which it contributes One Hundred Thousand Ghana Cedis each year for that purpose.
The facility is located in Accra at Asalebotwe and GNAT members only need to present a pay slip and an ID card to prove their membership before they get access to it. Mr. Alhassan therefore called on all GNAT members to always go through their pay slips to ensure that their membership dues are deducted so they can benefit from free treatment of cancers on any part of the body.
He was speaking at a meeting organized on Wednesday for school representatives here in Bolgatanga. The GNAT municipal secretary also called on teachers to take advantage of the Credit Mall to purchase their household items and the loan facilities available to them because its interest rates are far lower than any other loan facility.
Mr. Alhassan also called on teachers who were transferred from 2010-2013 but have still not received their T and T and transfer grants to make available to the secretariat, photocopies of their transfer letters and other relevant information so that effective demands can be made of government to pay the monies.
