Leadership of the Public Services Workers Union (PSWU) of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has declared an indefinite strike effective Friday, May 3, 2024.

The move is in protest of what they describe as an attempt to eject Executive Director for the EPA, Dr. Kingsley Krugu, from his official residence for the new Interior Minister, Henry Quartey.

Addressing union members, Chairman of the union, Godsway Daniels, directed all staff to lay down their tools on Friday.

According to him, the workers will march to their mother ministry, Environment, Science, Technology and Innovation, to present a petition and subsequently occupy the said bungalow to fend off an attempt by the Interior Ministry to eject their boss.

Mr. Daniels cautioned the Works and Housing Minister, Kojo Oppong Nkrumah to stay off the bungalow since the EPA is not in a position financially to be able to renovate a new bungalow.

He questioned what has happened to the bungalow occupied by Interior Ministers, wondering whether it’s been sold and to whom.
