Former President John Dramani Mahama has said the \u201csacking\u201d of some workers by the New Patriotic Party (NPP), because of the change of government was \u201cunacceptable.\u201d<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

In a tweet last Friday, Mr Mahama said the move sets a \u201cbad precedent for our governance. Mass sacking of workers by the NPP gov\u2019t unacceptable. #OneGhana #OnePeople.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThese workers are all citizens and like all Ghanaians have rights, which must be protected. #OneGhana #OnePeople,\u201d Mr Mahama added in a second tweet.<\/p>\n

There have been complaints by members of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) that, the new NPP administration in the last five months has laid off many workers employed during the NDC\u2019s regime.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

During the transition, between December 9, 2016 and January 7, 2017, the NPP complained that the NDC government had engaged in \u201clast minute\u201d recruitment of some workers into state institutions, and had signed some contracts as well, and that there were no plans for that recruitment and contracts.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The NDC however insisted that, the fact that it was during a transitional period did not mean governance should grind to a halt, and that Mr Mahama had a mandate to run the country until January 7, 2017.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Led by the now Senior Minister, Mr Yaw Osafo Maafo, the NPP served notice it was going to review all such contracts and appointments.<\/p>\n
