    Moving all midweek holidays to Friday is the most sensible thing to do. It's exactly what happens in advanced jurisdictions as it does not interfere with the productive working week. Meanwhile the legendary Osagyefo Dr. Kwame ...

    Chinchinga thief now wears the crown,
    Policing the streets he once shook down.
    With skewers in hand and justice in mouth,
    He grills the law while morals head south.

    P/NDC has been in power for 27yrs but they have not built a SINGLE FACTORY. Intelligent Capt Ibrahim Traore used 3yrs to build 5 factories to process their Tomatoes,Cashew & Gold.NDC leaders are indeed FOOLS

    @RUTHAN, I ADVISE THAT YOU GO AND LOOK FOR A JOB. NPP IS NOT COMING BACK SOON. GHANAIANS ARE NOT PREPARED TO ACCEPT THIEVES BACK TO POWER. ALL THE MONIES YOU HAVE STOLEN WILL BE RECOVERED. THIEVES!

    Ghana is totally in the WRONG HANDS now. Is Ghana gradually becoming an ISLAMIC STATE?? . What of if Christmas or Sarah fell on a day in the middle of the week. Will it still be moved to the next Friday? .

  • NARO 5 months ago

    NO WONDER YOU BELONG TO NPP. YOU ARE SO STUPID TO KNOW THAT CHRISTIAN HOLIDAYS ARE ESTABLISHED HOLIDAYS WORLDWIDE. STUPID FOOL!

  • Boakye 5 months ago

    Too many holidays is a waste of time and unnecessary.

  • Joe 5 months ago

    It is not compulsory, you can go to work if you like. Ask the market woomen if they observe every holiday. Those who need rest will also rest.

  • Yaw 5 months ago

    You have no idea on the economic impact so just mute.

  • KK 5 months ago

    You having the idea of economic impact, you can still work hard on holidays to boost the economy, nobody is forcing you to rest so just shut up.

  • Capt. Adabuga 5 months ago

    Does Afenyo Markins and his micro minority think they matter at all in today's Ghana? They should stop opposing anything and let the country move on. Next time you get power use it wisely

  • Toto 5 months ago

    I want clarity on how holidays like Christmas, New year and Muslim festivals will be moved to Friday if they falls on mid week.

  • Stefano 5 months ago

    In my opinion, the Friday shift will be for the non ceremonial holidays like 1st May, 1st July and 21st September. 6th March if falls on any day can be granted as a holiday on the next Friday.

    I suggest 24th December should be a holiday. Also Eid Adha should also attract 2 days holidays. If any occasion falls on Saturday or Sunday it shouldn't attract any holidays. No carry forward to a working day.
