Some retired staff of the Commission on Human Rights and Administrative Justice (CHRAJ) have petitioned President John Dramani Mahama and Parliament over the delay in the payment of their end-of-service-benefits.<\/span><\/p>\n

According to them, per the service conditions of CHRAJ, \u201can employee who has served ten years of service or is retired on medical grounds will be entitled to end-of-service-benefit of one month salary for each year served,\u201d but they have not benefited from such a provision since 2010.<\/p>\n

They said various petitions and calls placed to the commission has been futile, hence calling on President Mahama to come to their aid.<\/p>\n

[contextly_sidebar id=”lEtWMD4g7Z4eqXABRa1KpX6azimV5otF”]Speaking on Eyewitness News<\/b> on Wednesday, a retired Staff of the Commission, Ben Ayinne Azompae said: \u201cWhen we retired we were given letters then we retired hoping that the commission will go according to the sub condition of service, but to our utter dismay the commission disregarded our applications to pay the entitlement which is clearly in the staff condition of service.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThey didn\u2019t even reply to us so we have no recourse than to petition the president and copy parliament because parliament passes the law which made the commission to come into being,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, the Commissioner of CHRAJ, Madam\u00a0Lauretta Lamptey has come under intense criticism for spending about US$180,000 on rent<\/span><\/a><\/strong><\/span> at the AU Village and wasting another huge sum of money on the renovation of her official bungalow.<\/p>\n
