President Mahama Has Increased Military Peacekeepers’ Allowance By $1 From 30 Dollars A Day to 31 Dollars

Ghana Military
President Mahama has increased the allowances of Ghanaian peacekeepers by 1 dollar–from the current 30 dollars a day to 31 dollars.
“Together with the armed forces council and the high command, we have decided to increase by one dollar a day the rate that is paid to peace keeping soldiers who go out,” President Mahama said yesterday-Thursday at the Burma camp in Accra.
This increase will benefit every UN mission peacekeeper–and it comes at a time when peacekeepers have been complaining about how little their allowances are and how long it even takes for them to receive payment.
Touching this, President Mahama said; “major concern as far as external peace keeping duties have to do a lot with the prompt payment of allowances and also the quantity of allowances.”
Since 2009, the peacekeeping allowance has not been increased.
