Leadership of GUTA addresses the media
The Ghana Union Traders Association (GUTA) has called on government to, as a matter of urgency, take steps to reduce import duties and other costs which are threatening importers.
“We have decided to tone down on our demand for a strict and immediate enforcement of the GIPC Law 2013 (Act 865) Section 27 (1). However, this is not to say that GUTA has given up the demand for the enforcement of the Act,” a statement issued by GUTA and signed by Alpha A. Shaban, stated.
It called on state institutions responsible for the enforcement of the law to sit up and work diligently and expeditiously to ensure that all non-Ghanaians comply with the law or face the consequence.
“This will forestall the recurrence of any agitation on the issue of foreigners in retail trade in the markets.”
