"Lazy" NDC gov't is treating workers like "School Children" - Sammy Awuku
Sammy Awuku has importuned striking public sector
workers not to postpone their action until the
government begins to show signs of interest in
their plight.

Speaking on Peace FM's Morning Show "Kokrokoo",
the NPP National Youth Organizer insisted that the
incumbent government has squandered the pension
contributions by the workers.

Sammy Awuku however implored the government to
address the concerns raised by the public sector
workers.

According to him, the government is treating the
workers like "school children", forgetting that
the workers are full-grown adults who have
contributed to better their lives in the future.

Reacting to the government's inability to manage
the second tier pension contributions, Sammy Awuku
labeled the government as "lazy".

Without a shred of doubt, Sammy Awuku stated
emphatically that the government has "chopped"
pension monies of the workers.

“All over the world, pension fund and pension
money is used by lazy government all over the
world to pay for their vulgar display of
opulence…I’m saying the money, them
chop…This people; they chop GYEEDA, chop
SADA.”

To him, the government has no clue of the sums of
money the workers have contributed; hence its
failure to make give a vivid account.

He therefore dared the government to be bold and
reveal the amount to the workers.

“Should the government be bold and tell the
workers that here is the money and so, the workers
should come for it, it will be one of the wonders
in the world...Even if it were the NPP in power
and behaving like this, I will have the moral
courage to still come and talk for them. So, the
workers should not postpone their suicide letter.
This government has demonstrated clearly not to
show interest," he asserted.
