Gender Minister Otiko Afisa Djaba has ordered a probe into the inhumane treatment inflicted on a Ghanaian worker at the Abelenkpe branch of Marwako by a Lebanese supervisor.
Otiko who was accompanied by the Labour minister on a visit to the premises of Marwako Tuesday said she has given the labour ministry a week to submit their report on the incident.
A kitchen staffer, Evelyn Boakye, who works at the Abelenkpe branch of Marwako Fast Food Limited, had her face dipped into pepper paste by her boss Jihad Chaaban last week.
The treatment has attracted widespread condemnation, especially on social media, leading to the creation of a hashtag #boycottMarwako.
Meanwhile, the expatriate has in a statement apologized to Ghanaians for his conduct and asked for forgiveness.
“I wish personally to sincerely apologise to you for the incident on the night of 26 February 2017 at our Ablenkpe place of work,” he said in a letter.
“True to God, all I sought to do was to point you to something I found wrong. I admit I was angry a bit at the moment and saw you panic and accidentally resulting in the pepper splashing onto your face.I very sincerely regret the incident and apologise to you,” he said in a statement.

The man must face the law. He can't take us for granted. That is what they have been doing in this country. Indians,Lebanese,Chinese,these are the people that is molesting our people very bad. If the lady happens to be my relative 'hmmm' i would've burnt down that very restaurant. The Man should be depot from our peaceful country Ghana. ***barred word*** Man.
LET THE LAW DEAL DRASTICALLY WITH THESE LEBANESE SWINES. IF THEY ARE STRONG AND WISE, LET THEM GO AND FACE ISRAELIS AND LEAVE POOR GHANAIANS ALONE.
LEBANESE DON'T RESPECT THEIR GHANAIAN WORKERS AT ALL. AFTER ALL THEY FATHERED ONE OF OUR FORMER PRESIDENTS, THE MOST WICKED OF THEM. LIKE RAWLINGS LIKE LEBANESE. WHO GENES DON'T DEY????!!!!
There is no need storming the place, what we need is justice, proper punishment, not only deportation but a fine and a term imprisonment. Stop wasting time a start working since u calm u can do better. we don't want this swept under the carpet, as for u politicians, we know u well well.
A Moslem POS.Just doing what the Unholy Quran commands them to treat Infidels and Kaffirs.
Let the law take its course period to set as an example to everybody be you a Ghanaian or not.
