President Appreciates Workers’ Contributions To Economy
President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo has extended gratitude to Ghanaian workers for their contributions towards the development of the country.
“We recognise and appreciate the efforts and sacrifices they have made towards the construction of a happy and prosperous Ghana we seek, and, on this day, I say ayekoo to each one of you,” the President wrote in a message on his Facebook wall, on Friday, May 1, to mark the celebration of this Year’s May Day.
The President said though this year’s celebration of the day was muted as a result of the outbreak of the novel Coronavirus, the government would chart a course out of the pandemic to put the country on the path of sustained growth, progress, and prosperity.
He, therefore, urged organised labour to join hands with government in the fight against the pandemic, saying: “I am confident that, together, if we remain united and resolute, and maintain discipline and self-discipline, we shall defeat the virus”.
The Trades Union Congress (TUC) of Ghana cancelled the 2020 edition of the May Day celebration parades and outdoor activities in compliance with the ban on public gatherings in the country as part of measures to contain the COVID-19 pandemic.
It urged all workers to stay at home on May Day and continue to comply with all the relevant safety and preventive protocols in the fight against Coronavirus.
