Management of the Bolgatanga Municipal Assembly of the Upper East Region led by MCE Mr. Rex Asanga is seeking to employ butchers to operate at the abandoned abattoir in Yorogo a nearby community. Apexnewsgh.com report
The statement said: “It hereby announced for the information of the General Public that, the Bolgatanga Municipal Assembly is recruiting butchers to operate at the abattoir in Yorogo”.
“Interested persons are therefore invited to submit applications for consideration as butchers”.
“All applications must be addressed to the Municipal Chief Executive and submitted at the registry of the Assembly on or before Friday 28th January 2022”.
However, when Apexnewsgh.com contacted the Bolgatanga Municipal Chief Executive (MCE) Mr. Rex Asanga on the above statement of recruitment for interested butchers to apply, he said “The current butchers are refusing to relocate and giving conditions that are impossible to fulfill.
According to Mr. Asanga, the Caterers Association within the Municipality are massively hits and currently going through some level of difficulty because of the strike action initiated by the butchers and they are seriously on the Assembly to get them a functioning place where slaughtering of animals could be done to enable their business continue smoothly.
“But we cannot also allow the abattoir to waste away and stand there for years and also, once we have shot down the slaughterhouse, we don’t intend to re-open it now and the Caterers Association are on us because they need the services of the abattoir as they directly hit by the current impasse. So, the caterers need a place where slaughtering can be going on to continue with their business. So that is why we are trying to get some people who are willing to operate from the abattoir so that we can open up”.
“They signed a memorandum of understanding with my predecessor and asked that 5 or 6 things be done before they move and the 5 or 6 things were done and the assembly asked them to move and they refused to move and I have come and am building on that. There are minutes of meetings they have flouted in the past. We gave them Dec 15, 2021, to move and they said they will move on the 1st of January, 2022 we agreed and they got what they want and they are still saying they will not move. They are the people who gave us the January 1st to move not us. We called them for a meeting to discuss and they refused to come and rather told us to come and negotiate with their youth and we also say no because we started engaging with you the Executives already”.
