Hello youth of Ghana. You can take your own life with medicine.......for instance 10 paracetamol at once......or combine medicine and akpeteshie or weedicide.
Have you tried it? It doesn't work otherwise you will not be here recommending it to others
How much money changed hands? These corrupt and compromised labour union misleaders! A golden opportunity to force government to do the right thing for once gone abegging!
We are not disputing or downplaying the recent devastating effect of galamsey and all negative consequences it’s likely to bring.
However the problem is the timing of these agitations amid threat of strikes and how it has ...

Do you want to tell us that NDC is disappointed because NPP followers are destroying the land reserves and the water bodies? Then you have a big problem yourself
You think all galamsey operatives are NPP supporters? Galamsey started long before NPP came to power and has been active during Rawlings, Atta Mills, Kuffour and now Nana Addo"s time.

My brother, can't you share your opinion without Insults will the Insults change anything?
Togolese trokosi Ayigbe imbeciles. Your ongoing campaign strategy of making the country ungovernable has fallen flat. Hehehehe.
The TUC does not declare strikes. The individual unions do.
YSL, or whatever your stupid name, means.
The likes of you will rather choose to go to hell than been evil minded, satanic manipulative doing the bidding of nation wreckers.

Hmmm
The union leaders havebeen, bribed as usual no× it is the workers who will suffer dont trust your leaders
So that your foolish NDC who has no vision will take advantage of the situation. We win elections with visions and policies and not to run behind a certain group to make the government unpopular and use it to win elections.
Hmmm. So does this mean we have lost the fight against GALAMSEY?
@DK, no please. The fight against galamsey is just about beginning. The fight must never be politicised. It requires the efforts of all Ghanaians. Organised Labour, CSOs, Religious Organisations, etc must prevail on all the p ...

Especially Brother Joshua Ansah. This man is trouble!! He was on the SSNIT board, representing Labor when they sold the hotels to Bryan Acheampong. Brother Joshua, why?
The leadership of the Organised Labour has been bribed by the government.
They took 400.000, front the NDC to demonstrate. Fools.
Hahahaaa, Abronye says National Security paid them to call off the strike. Siaaa!!!
I knew they were going to be bribed by NADAA. Shame on you. They must be chased with cutlasses.
NDC didn't succeed. They were the brain behind this nonsense.
Saved by the bell.
NDC is the most useless political party in the world.
Your whole family is super useless. Gyimieee
Mahama said that he is indecisive, and what is the meaning to that? Are you indecisive? Any indecisive person cannot think to solve a problem and that is what Mahama is and should never come to the presidency again.

NDC'S stupid strike has once again hit the rocks with a big bang. God will punish them on the 7th December.
Don't forget that we are all drinking the galamsey water. Not NDC alone. Think.
So where is the State of emergency and d shoot and kill which are d only solutions and nothing else??? Dis is all bcoz of 3,000, 000.00 cedis. Tweaaaaaaaaaa. Organized boooooooola.
This is no news. Kevin Taylor did say on his program last week that organised labour will not do any demonstration and that they have collected money. He said so last week so it is no news.

We all in this country..npp can control everybody but they can't control the justice that Ghana will one day show them..they should ask Afrifa, kotoka, acheampong etc..
What did the mentioned names did for them to be killed? Don't bring yourself
Why is there not a release of an official statement from the President’s office stating in clear terms what it offered dis(O)ganizsed Labor in canceling the strike.
The leaders of 'organise labour ' have changed it name to 'organise lazy' because of their greed for brown envelopes. The message is now ghana let destroy ourselves. Very sad!!
Better, because I'm ready to go to work tomorrow God willing, we were obviously not going to honor this strike action.
Kwasiafo) now you get sense .
How much were you paid? Opposition parties are pushing you .
FOOLISH TUC SHAME ON YOU
It was earlier said that the opposition had paid money to Organised Labour to go on strike. Obviously what this means is that government has paid heavily and more than what is said to have been paid earlier
Galamsey has disrupted organized labour into disorganized labour
We must not create anarchy with unnecessary demonstrations and industrial strikes. So shameful we couldn't act this way on galamsey till we're about few weeks to election. Both parties all saw galamsey activities, so don't th ...

Not surprised at all. I knew it was going to be this. After their initial meeting, the government started to pick them off one by one with money. Unless we change the trajectory, Ghana is doomed.

Organized labour has done the sensible thing. Kudos!! The stupid and senseless NDC members will be very disappointed, I know for sure!
I don't think this message is coming from proper custody. Or some people have gone to take noko fio to survive. It is coming on keke.
