  I know that after completion of any form, be it application for employment, personal data etc, before you append your signature, there's a statement that the information you're going to sign is the truth and you're also liable to be dealt with if you provide false information. So it means that those teachers provided and signed false declaration. They should be sacked. Its like providing fake certificates!!!!!!

  I still can't believe that Ghana still adheres to the "colonial Days policy” of retiring teachers and several civil servants at 60 years of age. It's darn ridiculous in the 21st century which must be changed and here’s WHY??
  
  1) Because over seventy years ago, when the Europeans were messing with Africa, the "life expectancy" was very low and that's why they set the retirement age at 60.
  
  2) Now, Mr. BOBO (the Whiteman) is long gone and because of (a) Some good health care (b) Some good eating habits (c) Some good sanitation and (d) Some good life style habits, PEOPLE ARE LIVING LONGER THAN BEFORE. Can’t our leaders see that?? OK, Negro, why NOT retire politicians also at 60??
  
  3) Therefore, Ghana and most of Africa should revisit the retirement age and "increase it to about 70", so:
  
  (i) Our good teachers and good civil servants can continue to work to help Ghana; and
  
  (ii) That, teachers and other civil servants wouldn’t "cheat on their ages”, by which investigations will cost Ghana more money. All what these teachers and civil servants have to be required to do is that, after age 60, they should submit to both physical and medical examinations to determine their suitability to continue to teach or work in the civil service. Other than that, why retire a teacher, who is teaching History, Geography, Maths, etc., etc., in a classroom only to find him in the bush, farming and chopping wood? Is that not harder than teaching??
  
  **Bottom Line: RAISE THE RETIREMENT AGE FOR ALL CATEGORIES OF WORKERS**

  Omanhene, that is an excellent suggestion. At 70 person can still be a good teacher. NAGRAT should rather be talking to government to increase the retirement age rather than trying to falsify records.

  NAGRAT, at what point in time will a teacher know he or she has made a mistake to be corrected, if this is not based on falsehood, which you should not encourage.

  Increase the Retirement Age from the current 60 to 65 or 67 years.
