The National Service Personnel Association (NASPA) has officially distanced itself from a purported strike declared by a group known as the "Concerned NSS Personnel Association of Ghana" (CONSAG).

In a statement signed by NASPA President Gideon Osei, the association clarified that CONSAG has no mandate to represent the interests of national service personnel.

"NASPA, the official representative body for all national service personnel in Ghana, categorically states that we have not declared any strike. We urge the public to disregard the statement from the 'Concerned NSS Personnel Association of Ghana' as they are not a recognised organisation," the statement read.

NASPA emphasized its ongoing engagement with the National Service Scheme (NSS) management to address the recent delays in allowance payments.

The association reassured service personnel that allowances for April 2024 have been processed and will be reflected in their accounts by Friday, July 5, 2024. Furthermore, allowances for May 2024 are expected to be paid by Friday, July 12, 2024.

"NASPA remains committed to your well-being. We are working diligently with the management of the scheme to prevent future delays and ensure the timely reflection of allowances in their e-zwich accounts," the statement continued.

NASPA acknowledged the patience and understanding of service personnel during this period of delayed payments and urged them to remain calm and continue their valuable service to the country.

The association reaffirmed its dedication to addressing the concerns of service personnel and maintaining open communication with the NSS management to resolve any issues promptly.
