The conclusions were just cover up. Individual trade unions must not be allowed to be fooled by the top TUC hierarchy. They are protecting the goat. Get out there to demonstrate and strike.

Organised labour is a toothless dog that bark without biting. It will have been better we don't have anything called organised labour. If organised labour can not pressurized government to yield to workers demand then they are useless. They are chopping our money for nothing. The politicians are even better than them. To me as a worker the result of the negotiation is a shameful one on the part of organised labour and a good one on the part of government.

TUC leaders r bribed by dead goat mahama. Ghanaians r fools to accept this fake reduction.

The increment is about 150% considering how the credits r running. The solution is to vote pepenii mahama out in 10 months.
