The Coalition of Unemployed Graduates with Disabilities is threatening to camp for three days outside Jubilee House, the seat of Ghana’s presidency in Accra, if its members do not receive public-sector jobs within two weeks. The group is demanding verifiable appointment letters for each graduate on its list, according to 3News.
The coalition held its first protest in March 2026 before suspending the action after authorities promised recruitment. It resumed its protest and then petitioned the presidency in August, with a list of qualified graduates that officials said they had forwarded to President John Dramani Mahama, according to 3News.
Ghanaian Vice-President Naana Jane Opoku-Agyemang reiterated on 2 November that the government was establishing a 5% employment quota for people with disabilities, alongside free higher education, 3News reports.
