The West African Network for Peacebuilding, (WANEP-Ghana) has released its second quarter early warning brief with a call on government to consider the recent labour agitations as a national security threat.<\/p>\n
WANEP-Ghana wants government to proactively respond to the concerns of organized labour to maintain the nation\u2019s peace and stability.<\/p>\n
This comes ahead of organized labour\u2019s resolve to protest on Thursday over what is being described as unfavourable working conditions.<\/p>\n
National Coordinator of WANEP-Ghana, Issac Bayor made the call in Tamale at a media briefing ahead of the release of the second quarter early warning brief.<\/p>\n
Mr. Bayor said government must find possible solutions to the concerns of organized labour to curtail the various forms of labour unrest which is likely to degenerate into instability.<\/p>\n
He however appealed to organized labour to exercise maximum restraint and dialogue with government to address their concerns in order to strengthen the nation\u2019s social and political stability.<\/p>\n
