Bisibisi basaaaa. Ooh Dwarf. Your regime is complete borla
The labour Department has suffered for far too long. This arrogant Minister must be called to order
Say it again. This Department has really suffered. I visited there once and was wondering of they had been neglected by the government.
This is not right. The World Bank needs to act now and call the minister to order .
The structure was not built for him
I hope they intervene
The world bank might not sponsor Ghana projects again when they see how greedy the leaders are
This story is wild. It needs to be carefully looked at. The right thing needs to be done and the deserving party appropriated accordingly.
The fight is for a wealthy course. The Labour Department is mandated by law to extend its advice to the Sector Ministry on matters of defect of the National Labour laws. Such an institution is a mighty One.
It is only in Ghana that people tasked to protect will always take advantage of the vulnerable. The building was built in the name of the Labour Department but the father who is supposed to take care of his children wants the ...

This is unfair practice by the minister , the world Bank and all relevant stakeholders must come to the aid of the labour Department to up lift the The Department.
I hope the world bank intervenes and make sure the right thing is done.
This is unfortunate. Can this be done to GNPC, NPA or any other Government institution.
How can a loan meant for a purpose be used for a different purpose.
This is unfair and unfortunate.
Mr President, intervene.
World Ba ...

It can never happen. I hope the Department will not sit done for this to be done to them. They should be able to fight for their rights if they are to fight for the rights of the ordinary citizen
You see the life of NPP appointees. NDC will never do this.
The minister is greedy.

Greedy bastards grabbing what is not meant for them.
This is the beginning of their journey to opposition come December 7
Sharing os caring. The building is large enough to contain part of the ministry and the whole of the labour department
It's a lie, the minister and the ministry can't force themselves in a building that have no plans for them.
Mr Dickson.Mr J V. L. Philips, Mr F.K. Quaynor,Mr Gyimah -Boakye, Opanin Obeng-Fosu,just a few living and passed on.. We thought the past is no more. The present Ministry of Transport was snatched from us, our Youth Employme ...

What is then problem? Labour Dept if it indeed exist is under the.Ministry so who are these folks complaining
. In any case I don’t even know they exist. Where is the Labour office
That is why the minister should not take the building so that people like you will get to know thier existence.
That is why you will continue to stay in your village
The only institution in Ghana that enforce your right as employees or employer , you don't know them? Idiot man like you.
ooooooo Bafour Awuah. You should know better.
Just go for a loan to build a new ministry than taking what does not belong to you.
How many months are you left with to live office.
This is bad accounting practice. The purpo ...

Yawa for NPP. Opposition Akwaaba.
The minister, Ignatius Bafor Awuah, is a greedy man.
He is part of the problems why Labour issues is not taken serious.
As an old staff of the Department, i will rally support for the workers. Institutions must be strengthened not to be weakened.
Don't expect something good from the workers if you do this do them.
This intention of the minis ...

Where was the Hon. Minister when the department was occupying the bad state of the old structure? Where did he surface from? Wake up Labour Department and fight for your right.
Which tribe is the minister if I may asked?
His family will seriously suffer from his greediness and arrogance.
He pretend to work and Akufo addo pretend to pay him while stealing from the poor
This one doesn't deserv ...

That's all you know. Autocratic individuals. Remember the minister came to meet the Head.Fool
Whose name was used to build the infrastructure. Whose land was it built on. Go to lands commission and verify
He should sack himself first for trying to take what doesn't belong to him. Do you know how old the Labour Department is. Don't open your mouth to spew things you know nothing about
You see your foolishness.
No wonder you don't know who your father is.
Bastard.
Ask your mother who impregnated her and come back well.
Stupid fool.
The building was built in the name of the Department and no one can occupy except Labour Department.
This Labour Department has suffered for too too long. This annoying Minister must be sacked
This is broad day robbery.
This government always has outlandish scandals for us every morning it seems
We are dealing with all the Pharaohs in this world.
Mr Minister watch out
Greedy People. Always taking what doesn't belong to them. The Ministry is a selfish Ministry not having the interest of the Department at heart.
When the wrong person is put in charge and only has selfish interests. The Minister doesn't care about the Department.
These leaders always have their own Agenda..The next argument will be the NDC did worse.
The Minister should not use his position to bully the Department. The building doesn't belong to them. They shouldn't go close to it. What a country Ghana has become!
If that's true, then the minister should be careful. How can labour department suffer from time immemorial and to seeing light at the end of the tunnel for the sector minister to do this. This very disrespect to department. ...

This is a clear case of power struggle, hope it gets resolved amicably
The minister should focus on creating jobs instead of taking over offices
What's going on here? Can't they work together for the good of ghana?
This is a total waste of time and resources, settle your differences already!
The Labour Department staff have the right to protest, their concerns should be heard
Politics everywhere, even in the Labour Department, sad!
The Minister should listen to the staff's grievances and work together to find a solution.
This takeover will only lead to more unemployment, not solutions.
Ghana deserves better than these petty squabbles, focus on the bigger picture!
Transparency and accountability are key, hope the truth comes out and justice is served.
This is unacceptable. The ministry should keep off the building. Labour Dept deserves better
Greedy politicians are destroying the future of Labour Department
Power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely.
Foolishness at its highest if all you desire in this life is to rub others for your comfort irrespective of the pain you cause them
I HAVE VISITED A LABOUR OFFICE BEFORE, IN FACT, IT WAS VERY HORRIBLE, DILAPIDATED, I THOUGHT OF IT THAT THIS OFFICE HAS BEEN NEGLECTED. YES! NOW I KNOW WHERE THE PROBLEM COMES FROM. THEY WISHED NOTHING GOOD FOR THEM. OKAY!
The Labour Department has to stand up against all the past defamation and political interference.
Wei nyinaa ekesen?
Where from all these wahala??? Why???
What is yours is yours… Labour Department worry not
We have some notorious leaders in this country paaa oo!
The minister’s plan will never work… Not at all
The way Labour Department have suffered in that classrooms called offices, I swear it will never happen
The employment minister want to take over the Labour Department newly head office for what reason? No way
As a retired staff, we have gone through hell under this minister of employment and labour relations Hon. Ignatius Bafor Awuah
Over the past 7 and half years, he do nothing to improve Labour Department by way of revenue g ...
