    Loud mouth Afenyo-Markin, are you willing to pay more taxes to take care of public sector workers extra raise?

    Hypocrite Afenyo-Markin, your NPP messed up the economy, brought hardship to Ghanaians. Why didn't you raise salaries in line with inflation?

  • Unpredictable Oye Onye Kwasi Atta 9 months ago

    This is a show of confidence in NDC. Otherwise, the same workers unions who recently consistently refused to accept 24% from Akufo Addo's government will be rushing to grab 10%, which is less than half of previous offer.

    Afenyo Markins face like that of a He goat. Silly boys.
    After bringing Ghanas Economy on its knees they have the balls to be talking trash. They will soon see their smoothness levels.
    Shameless dishonest Nation wreckers.

    When you sent inflation to 54.5 percent and granted 30 percent increase in 2022 you thought you have done well It is a decision of the tripatite committee and not that of the the Government alone

    When the npp increased salaries a little over 10% what happened? They introduced Betting tax? Covid-levry, e-levy. NDC is removing all these nonsensical taxes. Check the taxes you pay when you go to the restaurant.
