if NDC will come forward for it.

By Dada Enyonam

It is very irresponsible, ridiculous and preposterous for the general Secretary of United Cadres Front (UCF), Efonam Felix Nyaku, to accuse the New Patriotic Party (NPP) of instigating the job action of the twelve organised labour.

The inference of this statement is that the leaders and members do not have the common sense to reason for themselves if even the issue affects them. The General Secretary of UCF which is the off-shoot of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), talked cheaply and loosely about the NPP. The NDC and its leaders have failed the country miserably and must stop apportioning blame for their mistakes.

What evidence, whether direct or indirect, does Felix Nyaku have? If there is any, why has he not furnished the security agencies of the nation with it? TALK IS REALLY CHEAP. The security agencies of the nation did inform the hopeless NDC government about the intended strike action but failed to bring them (the organised labour) to a negotiating table. It stands to reason that at the time the 12 organised labour unions were planning to embark and embarking on their job action, NPP was busy organising its flag bearer election and had no time to even think of meeting with any of the unions. How therefore can Felix Nyaku accused the NPP with it? This is one of the propaganda ploys of the NDC to divert attention from the in competencies and the unprecedented corruption in the current administration. It has become a feature of the NDC to woefully handle problems and later find a scapegoat. Although the NPP has a lot on its plate, it has not been happy about the labour action. It is the responsibility of Mahama administration to resolve it. If it cannot, the NPP is ready with free advice and free help.

Another stupid statement from Felix Nyaku is that “majority of the leaders of the striking unions were members of the NPP and was convinced that they had a hand in the current strike issues.” Being a coward, Nyaku was unable to name one union whose leaders were members of the NPP to justify the accusation.

Such cheap and loose talks are unnecessary and are impeding progress, development and mismanagement of Ghana’s economy.
