The Abossey Okai Spare Parts Dealers Association has reaffirmed its commitment to working closely with the Ghana Union of Traders’ Associations (GUTA) after what it described as constructive engagements that have helped mend relations between the two bodies.
The renewed partnership follows a meeting held on January 9, 2026, which the Association said signalled a return to cooperation grounded in mutual respect, open communication, and a shared goal of enhancing Ghana’s trading landscape.
This reconciliation comes weeks after the Association suspended its participation in certain GUTA activities in December 2025, citing communication breakdowns and concerns over the failure to acknowledge its executive leadership during the inauguration of GUTA’s newly elected president.
In a statement signed by its Head of Communications, Mr. Takyie Addo, the Association noted that subsequent discussions between the leadership of both organisations resulted in “significant progress” in resolving outstanding concerns. As part of the process, both sides recommitted to better communication, stronger collaboration, and sustained unity.
The Association also praised the Councils of Elders of both organisations, acknowledging their crucial role in rebuilding trust and fostering consensus between the parties.
