Ghana Railway Company Limited (GRCL) On The Venge Of Collapse Due To Four (4) Months Salary Arrears...W/R  GRCL Workers


The Western Regional secretary of GRCL, Mr Godwill Ntarmah has emphatically revealed to press at a press conference organized by the leadership at Takoradi that they have not received salaries for the past four months since there are no monies in the bank accounts of the company.

Addressing the media men, Mr Ntarmah said it is the expectation of workers that since the company is a state-owned one, we would have thought that some government support from the state, would have been extended to the company as it was the practice in the past, but all that we hear is, the company is a limited liability company and therefore should be able to work and generate enough to fund itself. This assertion, we disagreed.

The truth of the matter is that, with the challenges enumerated earlier, it is impossible for the company to generate enough funds to sustain itself and to operate as a going concern.

It will interest you to note that frantic efforts have been made by the leadership of the Union to have engagements with the President of the Republic His Excellency Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo Adoo to have interactions on the current situation facing GRCL but all have proven futile.

we have no option now than to engage you and use your

medium to appeal to His Excellency the President of the Republic for an engagement with us to save the GRCL from total collapse.

We are frustrated and disillusioned and we believe through your medium the President will hear us and give us the needed audience.
