Ghana Union of Traders Association (GUTA), has commended Speaker of Parliament, Rt. Hon. Alban Bagbin for his support towards the growth of Ghanaians business growth.

The speaker has admitted he had no right to amend the Ghana Investment Promotion Center (Act), Act 865 of 2013 following a meeting between him the the leaders of GUTA.

The National Welfare Officer for GUTA, Mr. Benjamin Yeboah speaking to Joynewsplus expressed their gratitude to the Speaker, saying they will hold to account his assurances to them that he represents the people of Ghana and supports Ghanaian traders in all sincerity.

Speaker of Parliament, Alban Bagbin, has said that his statement regarding Ghana and Nigeria retail feud on the floor of the Nigerian Parliament was misconstrued by Ghanaian traders.

Speaking to a delegation of GUTA, led by its President, the Speaker stated that there is no way he will speak against Ghana’s trading community.

The Speaker’s statement to the Nigerian Parliament was conceived by GUTA to be an exemption of Nigerian traders from the $1 million minimum capital requirement, under the GIPC Act 2013, Act 865 – as part of a joint communique between Ghana and Nigeria on the sides of the Extraordinary ECOWAS Summit.

Mr. Benjamin said, Leadership of GUTA expressed gratitude to the Speaker of Parliament for granting them an audience to re-emphasize their position that the GIPC Act, is all that holds the brakes to insecurity and unfair trade practices in Ghana’s retail space.

To the Editor, Why I didn’t show up for the morning news production on Monday On that fateful day (Monday, April 4 th 2022) I was preparing to come and produce the morning news despite the heavy rainfall and lack of electricity in my area. I was ready to come around 4:30am when my father ordered me to wait due to crime rate in my area and especially such an ungodly hour. From where l stay, I have to board a taxi to the main road before getting a car to work but unfortunately, there was no car at the time I arrived there around 5:10am because of the rain and lack of electricity.

Thank you                                     ...
