GUTA suspends strike after ‘goodwill’ from government

The Ghana Union of Traders Association (GUTA) has ended its strike after two days and urged its members to reopen their shops today, Friday.

The union in a statement said consultations with the government and Ga Mantse, Nii Tackie Teiko Tsuru II had led to the softening of its stance.

GUTA had been protesting because of Ghana’s forex challenges and the rising cost of doing business.

The cedi has been noted as the worst-performing currency and has fallen by over 50 percent to the dollar in 2022.

The Deputy Minister also said the government will suspend the ongoing invigilation by the Ghana Revenue Authority that has resulted in protests and the closure of businesses, specifically in Adum, Kumasi.
