GACL staff kick against alleged plot by saboteurs to force out current MD

Some staff of the Ghana Airports Company Limited (GACL) have rallied behind the current Managing Director, Yvonne Nana Afriyie Opare, amid reports of some officials plotting to have her replaced.

Reports indicate that some persons within the GACL are scheming to rock the boat by lobbying for the dismissal of Yvonne Nana Afriyie Opare.

According to sources, there is an agenda by the persons to rope in the Workers Union to lead the charge.

Sources within the GACL have indicated that there have been meetings among certain top management members and the union leadership, all in the name of ensuring that appointing authorities effect changes.

The sources within the union say members are unhappy.

It has been alleged that a GACL director is seriously lobbying for the post and wants to create an unhealthy atmosphere to oust Yvonne Afriyie.

It has also been speculated that an appointee of the Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo administration is also working around to get Yvonne Nana Afriyie Opare fired.

But most of the union members at GACL have vowed not to allow anyone to use them for their parochial interests.

A member of the union who spoke on condition of anonymity said, “We’ve seen and heard all that is going on and we are not going to be party to it. We won’t allow anyone to use us to push their own agenda.”

They are of the position that the President, who appoints people, should not be stampeded in doing things but rather allowed to do things on his own terms.
