Labour Unions in Ghana continue strike today

All labour unions in Ghana are on strike across the country today.

This is in protest of the decision to sell SSNIT Hotels to Rock City Hotels, which Ghana’s Agriculture Minister owns.

Even though the decision to sell the hotels has been withdrawn, labour unions across the country are striking to call for the dissolution of the SSNIT Board, top management, and the resignation of the Employment and Agric Ministers.

Until these decisions are taken, labour unions across the country will abandon their posts.

In a post shared via social media, Okudzeto Ablakwa indicated that this historic strike could have been avoided if those in leadership respected the people of Ghana.

Today’s historic nationwide strike by all labour unions would have been avoided but for intransigence, belligerence, lawlessness, utter disrespect for citizens and unbridled taste for state capture.

The board and management of SSNIT and the NPRA should immediately be dissolved!

The Employment Minister and the Agric Minister should subsequently be fired!

Let today’s industrial action serve as an eloquent reminder to all Ghanaian leaders that real power belongs to the people.

You mess with the people at your own peril.

A luta continua, vitória é certa!!!

State Capture shall surely be defeated!
