Leadership of the unions has asked all workers to join the strike.

Organised Labour on September 11 issued a statement demanding that government bans illegal small-scale mining, also known as galamsey.

A meeting by the adhoc interministerial committee failed to address their concerns, hence the nationwide wide.
