On the road leading to Ghana’s seat of power, workers of the Ghana Broadcasting Corporation delivered a blunt message: fix the system, or face sustained resistance.
In a peaceful but emotionally charged protest, the Joint GBC Union demanded that Director-General Professor Amin Alhassan proceeds on leave to allow a forensic audit into the corporation’s finances from 2019 to date.
Union leaders say years of delayed promotions, disputed allowances, alleged financial opacity, and shrinking technical capacity have pushed staff morale to breaking point.
“This is not about individuals,” union executives told members. “It is about a system that is failing, and if it is not corrected, it will come for everyone.”
The union further accused management of attempting to frustrate union operations and weaken staff representation, warning that silence today could mean injustice tomorrow.
For many workers, the protest marks a defining moment, one they say is about saving GBC, not destroying it.
And as chants of unity echoed toward Jubilee House, the message was unmistakable:
No audit, no peace.
