So who trained the self-styled unheard of Labpur Consultant called Senyo Adjabeng?
Austin Gamey showed the way of labour consultancy and now the market is flooded with strike-time-only labour consultants like Senyo Aadjabeng who is spewing out bad advice to Earl Ankrah and Mahama Ayariga.

How come that doctors are against the settlement arrived by the arbitrator appointed by them. You do not eat your bread and have it. The Labour Law also said that doctors must not stand in thorns and pick thorn. You do not throw blows in court.

AUSTIN GAMEY, YOU ARE THE FIRST PERSON TO HAVE ANNOYED THE DOCTORS WITH YOUR "THE STRIKE IS ILLEGAL" SONG.WHY ARE YOU NOW BACKING AWAY FROM THE SO CALLED "LAW" YOU HAVE BEEN TALKING ABOUT?KNOW THAT THERE IS THE COMMON SENSE APPROACH TO SOLVING PROBLEMS AND THE LEGAL APPROACH.THE COMMON SENSE APPROACH HAS ALWAYS BEEN FAR, FAR BETTER. SO IF YOU, THE LABOUR COMMISSION AND THE USELESS FAIR WAGES AND SALARIES COMMISSION THINK THE STRIKE IS ILLEGAL, KEEP ON COOLING IN YOUR COMFORT ZONES.

This is a challenge to the got's ability to withstanding tragedy/trauma. Sacking the striking docs or whoever would not solve the problem. Sensible negotiation and meaningful dialogue is the only strategy. Can we rely on Cuba for all our professional services?

If you say mahama should go then you want to say that the doctors are just trying to make the government unpopular. Let us say government does not pay the doctor's claims after two months and they still stay at home. ghanaians will be at the doctors. Because those who will be dying will not only come from the NDC or the president's family. Malaria or stroke does not know NPP or NDC they all live together and can fall sick together.

FOLKS NEED TO BE REALISTIC ABOUT TELLING THE GOVT TO SACK THE DOCTORS. IT TAKES AT LEAST SEVEN YEARS TO TRAIN A DOCTOR NOT LIKE THEIR MPs THAT EVEN AKUA DONKOR WANTS TO BE A PRESIDENT. WHO WILL TAKE CARE OF PEOPLE BY SACKING ALL THESE DOCTORS. IF THE NDC GOVT THINKS THAT THE CUBAN DOCTORS CAN HANDLE ALL THESE THEY ARE FOOLS AND DECEIVING THEMSELVES. THE CUBAN DOCTORS ARE NOT THAT BETTER AND THE TRAINING IS NOT AS GOOD AS OUR TRIANED DOCTORS. SO PAY THE DOCTORS AND RESOLVE THE ISSUE. YOU ARE PAYING YOUR MPs SO WHY DONT YOU HAVE MONEY FOR THE DOCTORS.

Please Mr. President, ask the Cuban doctors to stand by. Ghanaian have had enough of these ungrateful wicked and money mindedness of doctors in Ghana. They know their take home pay, plus housing allowance, picket money etc, etc is far more than ordinary Ghanaian earn. The cocoa farmer works harder but enjoys little or no social protection. Please Mr. President show no mercy for the wicked. Sack all of them. With immediate effect.

If the government can pay MPs GhC 100,000 how come they can't give workers just 10% raise? The govt. should be fair to the workers. Reduce govt. spending by reducing the horrible numbers of MPs (too many of them) Ghana should have NO MORE than 150 MPs! Ghana has too many Govt. Ministers and Deputies. The Max. ministers should be about 25 and about 30-35 deputies. This could save the nation enough money for all the raises workers are agitating for...Does this make sense to someone??

First and foremost, I will like to appluad Mr. Garmey for his sensible advice. I suggest that Mr. Ayariga to listen to what Mr. Garmey said. Infact, Mr. Ayariga is not fit to be a Minister.He must be removed from the post of the Ministry. let us envisage the logic in what Mr. Ayariga suggested. If all the Doctors are sacked and new Doctors are employed from Cuba as some NDC torgs are suggesting, don't you think the amount that will be used to import Doctors from Cuba could be used to pay what the Doctors are demanding? why can't the Government pay what the Doctors are demanding? Meanwhile, the Govenment is giving out a whooping sum of GNC200,000.oo to each member as ex-gratia award. Does it sound good to you, Mr. Ayariga. Not until the Government pays the Doctors demand, The Doctors should continue with the strike.

As a matter of urgency, Cuban doctors can be recruited to work in our hospitals and as a matter to punish,our doctors must be sacked.

It is only in Ghana that the government can take doctors and civil servants for a ride. If you don't pay them, how do these guys take care of themselves and that of their families? They definitely cannot but the government wants them to continue working without pay. How do they eat? How do they pay their rent? How do they wash their clothes? I mean this is common sense. If they rebel, you say it is illegal.

If you are an employer and your employee is not prepared to work what do you do to him?Keep him on and continue paying him?Or because they are doctors they are unsackable.Doctors are not above employment laws.
