NATIONAL DEMOCRATIC CONGRESS

DAFFIAMA-BUSSIE-ISSA

For Immediate Release

1st May, 2020

*SOLIDARITY MESSAGE TO ALL WORKERS*

On behalf of the Member of Parliament, Hon Sebastian Sandaare and the Constituency Executive Committee, the Communication Bureau of the National Democratic Congress in the Daffiama-Bussie-Issa wishes to convey its sincerest felicitation and unfaded solidarity to all workers, both in the formal and non-formal sector, in the Daffiama-Bussie-Issa and beyond, on the occasion of the commemoration of this special day, set aside to celebrate our gallant workers, who toil day in and out to keep our economy alive.

We appreciate the contributions of farmers, market women, security officers, teachers, health workers, and many others whose sacrifices have added directly and indirectly to the growth of our district and Ghana. May God continue to give you enough strength to impart the larger society.

The National Democratic Congress believes that an empowered labour is a catalyst for the social and economic development of the people and as such, a congenial environment is needed to motivate all workers to give out their best. We shall always lead the needed advocacy to motivate cherished workers whose sacrifices for development are virtually immeasurable.

Even in the midst of this global pandemic (covid-19) some workers especially our health workers still risk their lives just to ensure the safety of the entire populace. In the Daffiama-Bussie-Issa in particular, we are not unaware that our health workers are doing their best even in the absence of Personal Protective Equipment to ensure their own safety. Whilst we demand that duty bearers are proactive and make PPEs available to these hard-working but vulnerable health workers, we wish to assure all that the NDC has the welfare of all workers at heart and appreciates the patriotism, commitment, and dedication so much demonstrated even under very hostile working conditions.

Hon Sebastian Sandaare still insists that every constituent takes the preventive measures against covid-19 seriously as the number of confirmed cases in our country continue to increase. He also urges all stakeholders to intensify public education on Covid-19 and CSM.

Once again, we wish all gallant workers a joyous day as we celebrate them in our various homes and pray that God will deliver this country from the numerous challenges that have made lives virtually unbearable.

#StopTheSpread#

Thank you.
