Takoradi, April 3,-GNA-Striking workers of the Ghana Railway Company Limited on Thursday assembled in Takoradi to celebrate the of their six-week long strike.

The workers, all clad in white attires and waving white handkerchiefs, white scarf, sprinkled powder on one another and danced to brass band music at the company's headquarters in Takoradi. The workers, who had a marathon meeting at the Ketan Bottom Tree, resolved to resume work on Friday April 4, and walked through some principal streets from Ketan but on reaching the New Takoradi round about, they were directed by the Police to use the rail instead of the road.

Mr. Joseph K. T. Dadzie, Interim Management Committee (IMC) Chairman poured the libation in the precincts of the company and revoked all earlier curses, invocations and called for unity and oneness among all.

He thanked the workers for their solidarity and consistency during the entire duration of the strike.

He directed that all doors which had earlier on been blocked should be re-opened to enable workers to resume work but stressed that the door to the Managing Director's office should still be under lock. At exactly 1558 hours, the workers armed with harmers, pinch bars started removing all wooden boards used to seal off the office whilst the workers clapped and cheered. Earlier, when the Ghana News Agency (GNA) visited the office the entire place was dusty, dirty and still had red flags flying at several vantage points.
