The Public Utilities Workers Union (PUWU) has asked the president for a dialogue on privatization. PUWU General Secretary Michael Adumatta Nyantakyi has called on the president to act. “Although the current government has started consultations to address the issue, the General Secretary says they want to take part in the discussions in order that their concerns will be adequately presented. ‘We know that once the board of MIDA has been constituted, government is not sitting idle with respect to this concession. Definitely some discussions may be going on that we may not be privy to so we think it is important we call on government to honour its word and initiate this process.’ He added that it is critical that the views of key stakeholders are taken on board before any major decision is taken.”
