Workers of the state broadcaster, Ghana Broadcasting Corporation (GBC) have mounted intense pressure on the National Media Commission (NMC) for a permanent dissolution of the current board over allegations of financial malfeasance.

Addressing the media, Chairman of the GBC Divisional Workers Union Michael Allotey said the state of affairs at the nation’s broadcasting house had gone from “bad to worse.”

“Things have gone bad under the watch of this board, which is not interested in our core work of news gathering, production, dissemination of public information, entertainment, education, and social mobilisation. We wish to remind the NMC to withdraw its appointment board without delay if it wants industrial peace at GBC,” he said.

“We strongly ask the NMC to direct this board to give the whole world a full disclosure of the 2014 FIFA World Cup and 2015 AFCON contract and proceeds vis-à-vis expenditure,” he added.

The workers have vowed to continue their protests until their concerns are addressed.
