Speaking to Akwadaa Nyame of Silver 98.3 FM, they said that their wages are very low as compared to other laborers in local companies therefore demanding a pay rise.

They said some workers receive GHC15 after a hard 12 hours work. They have also accused the Ghanaians in the top position in the company for influencing the foreigners to pay such a low amount.

The workers also organized a demonstration yesterday where the curses were denounced but the chief of Atonsu in the Asokwa Municipality where the construction work is ongoing summoned the workers and the Chinese nationals to settle the impasse.

They confirmed this morning that the Chief of Atonsu yesterday called them and has told them to be calm and that he address their issues in the coming days.
