Mr Abraham Koomson, General Secretary of the Ghana Federation of Labour has described as criminal decision to pay spouses of the President and his vice.
In an interview o Class fm, he wondered how dishonest the President could be after stressing not to increase salaries of workers during May Day celebration.
“I can’t understand”, he fumed, adding that for a president who promised not to increase his salary as well as those of his ministers during this year’s May Day celebration, “if you are going to pay your wife, what kind of dishonesty is this?”
“The workers are even attacking us; they are even insulting us that we go to agree on six per cent, four per cent [pay rise] without considering their plight then we sit down, we fold our arms for the presidency to allocate – as if all these monies – and the annoying thing is that they are going to pay them ‘back-pay’ since 2017”, an angry Mr Koomson noted.
To him, the decision is absolute nonsense.
“Are you happy with what is happening? I’ll continue to talk. What kind of nonsense is this?”
