The labour movement in Ghana has been thrown into mourning following the death of Isaac Bampoe Addo, the Executive Secretary of the Civil and Local Government Staff Association of Ghana (CLOGSAG).
Sources close to the association confirmed that Mr. Bampoe Addo passed away on Friday, August 21, 2026, following a brief illness.
He served as Executive Secretary at a time when CLOGSAG was actively engaged in negotiations with the government and other stakeholders over issues affecting public sector workers.
In the course of his work, Dr Bampoe Addo played a prominent role in the association’s negotiations, industrial actions and engagements on labour-related matters.
He was also involved in the development of CLOGSAG’s institutional policies and advocated for the interests and welfare of members of the association.
His death is expected to be a significant loss to CLOGSAG and the wider public sector labour community, where he was involved in key discussions concerning the conditions of service and welfare of public employees.
Further information on the circumstances surrounding his death and funeral arrangements is expected to be announced by the family and CLOGSAG in due course.
