In an interview with Citi News monitored by wenomedia, the secretary of the workers union, Evans Gyimah said the agreement between the management and his members was reached over the weekend.

“We are working now but there are some grievances that have been agreed on between both parties. So that is why today you see that the workers have started working. It is not all that easy but because of the agreement that both parties have agreed on, that is why we (the workers) are working.”

“I don’t think that is all, but we are satisfied with what has been agreed upon so far.”
