Sack PMMC Managing Director – Workers

The Ghana Mineworkers local Union has asked President Akufo-Addo to sack the Managing Director of the Precious Minerals Marketing Company (PMMC) immediately.

The workers accused the MD, Dr. Kojo Opare Hammond of breaches procurement laws in awarding contracts

They also accused the MD of sacking staff of the company for no reason.

The workers presented a petition to the chairman of the mother Union, Ghana Mineworkers Union to be forwarded to the management of the company.

The local PMMU secretary for the Ghana Mineworkers Union, Agnes Ayitey said “we have condoned irregularities for quite too long. Opare Hammond came to this institution with his own management staff which is not helping the company and he is flouting the administrative processes.

“He handpicks and promotes…if you don’t gossip to him he doesn’t promote you and he is paying exorbitant board allowances.

“He has increased board allowances to 729% whiles he gives the staff 12% per year. They have had 26 board meetings from January till now. We want him out, we have petition our mother body.”
