The spokesperson for the Association, Kweku Amedume in an interview, stated that their action is to drum home the demand for their money since the government has failed to settle the over 2 year’s arrears owed its members.
An initial 14-day ultimatum was issued by the association to the buffer stock company demanding full payments of the outstanding arrears or risk a series of picketing.
The ranking member for the Education Committee in Parliament, Peter Nortsu Kotoe also in interview, stated that Buffer Stock Company will be called to answer questions on the huge debts owed the Food Suppliers.
