VIDEO: Minority demands immediate reinstatement of dismissed BoG Staff

The Minority in Parliament is demanding the immediate reinstatement of about 100 staff dismissed by the Bank of Ghana.

The caucus contends that the termination of the appointments, without appropriate justification, constitutes a violation of Ghana’s labour laws and undermines the rights of the affected workers.

Addressing journalists on Tuesday, June 24, the Member of Parliament for Savelugu, Hajia Fatahia Abdul-Aziz, described the move by the Central Bank as unjust and unacceptable.

She further outlined a series of steps the Minority intends to take if the dismissed employees are not reinstated promptly.

“The Bank of Ghana must restore every single dismissed worker to their rightful position without any further delay. Their appointments were lawful; their dismissals were not,” she stated.

Hajia Abdul-Aziz also called for accountability from the Bank’s leadership, saying, “The Governor of the Bank of Ghana must face Parliament and explain this heartless abuse of power. You are not above the law, and you must answer to the people.”
