Abraham Koomson, the Secretary General of the Ghana Federation of Labour, expressed his gratitude towards Members of Parliament for intervening in the issue of selling SSNIT hotels.
He suggested that this intervention might be what was meant to happen according to God’s will. Koomson emphasized that the labor unions were unsuccessful in preventing the sale and might have failed altogether if it were not for the MPs stepping in.
Speaking at a press engagement organized by the advocates of the “Hands off our hotels demonstration” in Accra, Koomson declared that any trade unionist who did not participate in the upcoming demonstration did not deserve to represent workers.
The event was attended by various groups including the minority caucus in parliament, TUC, Federation of Labour, Coalition of La Youth Association, Ghana Action Network, Arise Ghana, and United GaDangme Caucus.
The demonstration is scheduled to commence tomorrow morning starting from Labadi Beach Hotel.
