The NLC issued an official statement on Friday, June 27, confirming its position on the matter.

The NIA Division of the PSWU of  TUC (Ghana) declared an indefinite strike  on Tuesday, June 24, over delayed payments of their Operational Support Allowance, the only allowance received by NIA staff to supplement their basic salaries.
