The Monday deadline relates to the submission of promotion information for payroll processing and does not amount to a commitment to pay all outstanding salaries and arrears by that date.

Education Minister Haruna Iddrisu had directed the GES to submit outstanding promotion data to CAGD by Monday to enable the department to process the salaries of affected teachers on their new grades.
