The FABAG had earlier, in December 2025, warned of staff strikes and labour unrests, which it said threatened operations at the port. The port management, in response, had labelled the statement as inaccurate and unreflective of true happenings at the port. “This represents a 90% decline in operational efficiency, with devastating consequences for bulk and bagged cargo port users. Instead, inadequate staffing, low morale, and unresolved worker grievances continue to negatively affect throughput and turnaround times,” the body warned. The association noted that Tema Port is a critical national asset and that public relations statements cannot substitute for real operational improvements.
