There is deepening division within the labour front as some concerned members of Organized Labour reject calls for an industrial action against illegal mining widely known as galamsey.The call for industrial action was made by leadership of labour union, who argued that the government's failure to declare a state of emergency on galamsey is a threat to the livelihoods of Ghanaians.Despite its engagement with government, Organized Labour is set to embark on a nationwide strike on October 10.However, some members of labour union have rejected the call, saying that it was not the right approach to addressing the issue of galamsey, stressing that "you don't use wrong to correct wrong.""Our views have not been taken.
It's just a few people at the top and they know what they have been taking.
They can't make decisions for some of us.
We are in academia - we are teaching and you just get up there and make a decision that you alone are declaring a strike.
