The Public Relations Officer (PRO) of the Attorney General’s Department Owusu Ansah who confirmed this to Accra-based Citi FM said they are complying with the directives of the National Labour Commission (NLC).

The NLC directed that the State Attorneys return to work immediately.

But the State Attorney accused the Attorney General’s Department of failure to enforce an earlier ruling by the Commission.

Meanwhile the Department denied the accusations saying they have complied with all the rulings of the Commision.

Owusu Ansah said.

He added that the State Attorneys were directed not to embark on a strike but they defied the order.

The Association of State Attorneys declared an indefinite nationwide strike following failure on the part of the government to meet their conditions of service demand.
