Scores of workers of the National Disaster Management Organisation,(NADMO), have picketed at the Finance Ministry to demand their two years' unpaid salaries.

They told Joy News Tuesday, many of them have not been paid for over two years now.

About 30 representatives petitioned the Ministry over two months ago to push for the payment. The Chief Director of the Finance Ministry has promised to pay them next month.

The picketers also moved to the Controller and Accountant-General’s Department (CAGD).

A dissatisfied worker explained that their staff I.D numbers have been blocked at CAGD making the payment of their salaries impossible. He wants Controller to correct the anomaly immediately.

 “It is so sad and pathetic. Seriously we are tired,” a lady who has not been paid for 31 months lamented. Some of them are fathers, mothers who have family responsibilities, she stressed.

She said they have been relying on friends and families to survive.

Meanwhile, some NADMO coordinators have been accused of hoarding provisions meant for distribution to staff of the relief support agency.

A picketing lady said the coordinators are “sitting on” rice meant for the staff.

The picket at CAGD is the second in a month after some 90 junior doctors had to force the issue of unpaid salaries by besieging the premises of the public sector payroll department.

There is growing agitations on the country's labour front as government appears overwhelmed by demands from teachers, nurses, pharmacists, midwives and judicial staff.

Doctors are currently not working and have withdrawn their services until their conditions of service are agreed. Ghana is under an IMF programme that requires strict fiscal discipline after years of mismanagement resulting in huge fiscal deficits.
