One of the workers whose name has been given as Boat told Nhyiraba Paa Kwesi Simpson, the host of Connect FM’s Omanbapa morning show, that they were demanding their salaries when tempers flared.
“We have worked for the whole month and our salaries had not been paid so we had a meeting and asked our Chinese employer why we have not been paid. One of our colleagues went to the Chinese boss to find out what was wrong with the salaries because we have families and we are also owing some people,” he narrated.
“In the heat of the argument, the Chinese boss pulled a flick knife and slashed the throat of our colleague. He has incurred deep wounds, blood traces could be seen everywhere. He has been rushed to the Effiankwanta Hospital and we pray he will survive,” he alleged.
According to him, about 80 Ghanaians are working in the construction company and each of them receives a daily salary of GH¢18.
He adds that some military officers intervened and resolved the issue after their colleague had been rushed to the hospital for medical attention.
