The Chairman of the TDCL, Mr. Wilson Agana said it is important that their concerns are looked at in the interest of Ghanaian workers.
The demonstrators presented a petition to Nana Akomea, Minister of Manpower, Youth and Employment. He promised to present it to Cabinet at its meeting on Thursday September 13, 2007.
