By this, they mean such an initiative is not needed especially now that citizens are requesting for the country to be fixed. The spouses of the President and his vice will be paid salaries after parliament has approved the recommendations of an emolument committee. But speaking exclusively to GhanaWeb, some Ghanaians have bemoaned such an initiative adding that there are more pressing needs in the country than the payment of salaries to spouses of the presidents. “If that’s what they have decided to do, then they must pay salaries to the wives of each government worker. I have never seen or heard that president’s wives are entitled to salaries,” said another.
