GETfund Contractors Postpone Demo

The contractors working on the GETfund�s Schools Under Trees Project have called off their intended demonstration to the Castle and have scheduled it for Monday. The contractors numbering over a hundred planned to march to the Castle, the seat of Ghana�s government to present their petition to President John Evans Mills on Thursday. But one of the contractors in charge of the projects in the Eastern and Volta Region, Philemon Addey has said they have called off the protest because the President is out of the country. �We have just decided to call it off today because we understand the president and the minister of finance are not in the country,� he told Citi News. �When they come and they are informed, they will not see the urgency in this matter. So we will embark on the strike on Monday,� he explained.
