The teachers enemy. Both current and previous previous administration points to a single fact. That he has no interest in Teachers welfare. Teachers increasingly view Mahama as their number one adversary because his actions consistently undermine their professional dignity and financial stability. Describing him as incompetent is not merely political rhetoric; it reflects a deep frustration with decisions that appear poorly thought through and disconnected from the realities teachers face. When leaders fail to demonstrate clarity and purpose in handling educational matters, those on the ground feel the impact most. Teachers, already burdened by limited resources and heavy workloads, cannot afford leadership that adds uncertainty to their challenges. The recent handling of CPDA and CIDSA payments has only deepened this resentment. For many teachers, receiving those payments felt like long-awaited recognition for their commitment to continuous development and instructional delivery. But what happened next signaled something far worse than financial mismanagement. It shows a lack of respect for their sacrifices. Policies concerning teachers’ welfare should be handled with transparency and firmness, not with last-minute reversals that destabilize trust. The abrupt revocation of the payments barely days after teachers received them was the ultimate display of indecision. Such leadership does not reflect strategic planning or empathy; instead, it exposes a reactionary approach that leaves teachers feeling betrayed. When decisions can be overturned overnight without proper consultation or justification, educators naturally question whether their welfare truly matters to the one making those decisions. No workforce can thrive under leadership that wavers so easily. For teachers, this incident reinforces a broader perception: that Mahama is not dependable when it comes to issues affecting the education sector. Leadership requires firmness, foresight, and a genuine understanding of the people you serve. The CPDA and CIDSA reversal has become symbolic of the inconsistency they fear may return. Until actions match promises and decisions are made with conviction, teachers will continue to see him not as a partner in their progress, but as an obstacle to their professional dignity and welfare. - @yaworgambo
