Employers who pay workers less than GHS1,000 deserve to be stolen from – Prophet

The conversation surrounding fair wages in Ghana has recently escalated due to a bold statement made by Prophet Johnson Adu-Boahen of Christ Revival Baptist Church in Lapaz-Accra. In a sermon that quickly went viral, the prophet denounced employers who pay their workers less than GHS 1,000 a month or delay salary payments, labeling them as “wicked” individuals who do not deserve the hard work of their employees. His words were direct and controversial, sparking a debate among the public.

The current minimum wage in Ghana amounts to GHS 19.97 per day, translating to GHS 599.10 per month for full-time workers. However, with the ever-increasing cost of living in the country, this amount often falls short of covering basic necessities. Many workers are forced to take on additional jobs or endure financial hardships just to make ends meet. This economic disparity has led to widespread frustration among the workforce.

Prophet Adu-Boahen’s statement suggesting that underpaid workers have the right to retaliate against their employers has stirred up a moral dilemma. While stealing can never be condoned legally, the prophet’s words shed light on the deep-seated anger and helplessness felt by many Ghanaian workers. The growing wealth gap between employees and employers has created a sense of injustice and powerlessness among the working class.

The question now arises: could this mounting frustration potentially lead to a surge in workplace unrest if wages remain stagnant or continue to decrease? While Prophet Adu-Boahen’s call to action may be seen as extreme, it reflects a larger issue of economic inequality and exploitation in Ghana. It is essential for employers to reevaluate their compensation policies and ensure that their workers are fairly remunerated for their hard work.

As the debate over fair wages continues to unfold, it is crucial for both employers and employees to engage in constructive dialogue and work towards creating a more equitable and just work environment for all. Only through collaboration and understanding can Ghana move towards a future where all workers are valued and respected for their contributions to the economy.
