He said the government was yet to grant the 20 per cent cost of living allowance, COLA demand they made during the May Day celebration.

Inflation is running in the 20 per cents, when we were negotiating for public sector workers inflation was less than 10 per cent}

“If we, as unions, we are demanding something to improve the lives of workers, we cant call it disturbances, it is our legitimate right to fight for the workers of this country because without them Ghana will be nothing

We expect government and employers to know that we cannot live with this any longer,” he said.
