STATEMENT BY NURUDEEN IBRAHIM ON MAY DAY CELEBRATION
We, as a society, must recognize and appreciate the contributions of our hardworking workers who play a crucial role in driving our economy forward.
On this May day celebration, I stand on behalf of the Ghanaian youth to appeal to the government to prioritize the improvement of the condition of service for all workers.
Workers are the backbone of our country and deserve fair wages, safe working conditions, and access to benefits such as healthcare, accomodation allowance and paid leave.
It is essential for the government to implement policies that protect and support workers, especially during these challenging times were we have run to the IMF for a bailout.
Today, most Ghanaian workers depend on loans to make earns means and further cater for the needs of their families and associates.
By investing in the well-being of the Ghanaian worker, we not only ensure their dignity and rights are respected, but also strengthen our economy and promote social cohesion. Let us come together to advocate for better working conditions for all workers, and create a more just and equitable society for all.
Happy May Day!
Signed
Chief Nurudeen Ibrahim
