Lets stop these kinds of allegations! The NDC did not bribed Afari Gyan during the 2012 election but won based on their realistic manifesto and policies.Besides, The EC staff are only expressing genuine concern about their condition of service which I believe this listening government will take into consideration. However, lets all see strike action as a last resort to make this country a better place for us all.

Strikes are a part of very democracy but to a large extent it takes a toll on productivity in general and the inconveniences they pose are not worthwhile.
However, The labour law act 651(153) stipulates that "industrial disputes are under an obligation to
negotiate in good faith."
Hope they result to dialogue and forgo the strike which is constitutional but does not add any value to the economy.

You don't think they already tried dialogue? You can dialogue with someone ready to listen, not someone who isn't willing to listen.

Unfortunately, the MPs UNITED when the subject was abt money; it sold its soul, and other institutions are leading similarly! We know the jump in prices, particularly PETROL, automatically
affects all things, but the leadership keeps counting on the increase as it means to raise capital.
Now, how fo we CRAWL back to civility? The disease will remain 'cancerous' on the economy until the process in Government is re-applied; the KOOKOASE arithmetic is not adding well, and the middle class down is paying the price.

I wish management sits with the staff and sort things out before the strike takes off as scheduled because EC is one of the most sensitive department in Ghana which needs to be taken care of as regards the burden on their shoulders(election 2016)this year. l plead with the government to quickly come to their aid.

You can even go on and the dead goat will not my you. Besides which working conditions are you seeking for corrupt EC workers. When you employ people to work for you you end up slicing their wages at time of them receiving the money all in the name of renting vehicle to bring your officials to come for trainings and now you guys are there talking strike.

There u go, "Mr Speaker, our Support Officers should be well paid". That was the flimsy Excuse by the EC Charlotte Osei,to demand over- estimated 1.2b of Taxpayers Fund to conduct 2016 Election,in my personal opinion. Permanent Staff and about 3-5 Wks or more Temporary Returning Officers, which of the two should be considered for a fair Pay;first!.Again,in my personal estimation,I don't think the Ministry of Finance did a diligent job b'cos,the 800 million GH Cedis is Still on the higher side.Give me the Actuals(Figures) Expended in the last Elections and I would be able to give you a fair Estimates for 2016 Election.
Or, Actuals(not estimates) of last 3 Elections,less Cost of Biometric Machines,b'cos New Bio Machines is not required.What do you talk about; 1.2b GH Cedis to conduct Elections; You must be Kidding!.Endeavor to Pay the Big Boys & the BigGirls Fair Salaries,pls.
