The Minister of Communication, Digital Technology and Innovations (MoCDTI), Samuel Nartey George, has ordered the immediate reinstatement of all suspended staff of the Ghana Digital Centres Limited (GDCL).
In a statement dated Tuesday, July 1, 2026, the Minister directed the Management to immediately reverse its decision to temporarily suspend the employment contracts of all staff after the flooding of its offices pending what the company described as a comprehensive assessment. The suspension was expected to take effect from July 1.
“The Ministry takes a very strong view of the directive and IMMEDIATELY instructs Management to reverse that decision. All GDCL staff are to disregard the directive,” the statement said.
“At a time when staff have been personally affected by the June 29th floods, the Ministry stands with its staff and the staff of all our Agencies,” it added.
The Ministry further disclosed that the management of Ghana Digital Centres Limited has been invited to a meeting on Wednesday, July 2, 2026, to discuss the matter.
The meeting follows a visit by the Minister to the Centre on Tuesday, June 30, where he assessed the extent of damage caused by the floods to the facility and businesses operating from the premises.
