is to protest<\/strong> <\/span><\/a>what they say is government\u2019s display of bad faith in dealing with the matter by failing to reduce fuel prices .<\/p>\nThe National Petroleum Authority increased fuel prices by 9 percent citing increases in world market price of crude as a major reason for its decision.<\/p>\n
In an interview with Citi News the Chairman of the Council, Wilson Agana said they have to act because government is taking the Ghanaian worker for granted.<\/p>\n
\u201c\u2026They think we are not serious and they can take us for a ride but now enough is enough. By Tuesday our government is going out and we think that they cannot ride us the way they are riding us.We are sending a letter of notification of our demonstration to the Police,\u201d he stated. He believes government will be compelled to address the Council\u2019s concerns after it embarks on a demonstration.<\/p>\n
He added that: \u201cThey make unnecessary and unguided statements\u2026 after the demonstration when we all seated in the house for one week and we don\u2019t go to work then they will also sit up. We are going to go on demonstration upon demonstration.”<\/p>\n
