NLC To Storm Imo Govt House

138

The President of the Nigerian Labour Congress (NLC), Joe Ajaero, has ordered members to storm the Imo State Government House.

Ajaero made this known while briefing journalists at the Labour House on Sunday in Abuja.

NLC and the Imo state government have been at war regarding the treatment of workers in the state.

The NLC president also accused the Imo State Governor, Hope Uzodimma, of violating and neglecting workers’ welfare.

He alleged that due to the hostile actions of the governor towards workers in the state, many of them have died because of the lack of payment of their salaries.

Speaking further, Ajaero lamented the non-compliance with the national minimum wage by the state government while accusing Uzodimma of refusing to implement previous agreements, especially the accord reached on January 9, 2021.

Also, he said outstanding salary arrears of about 20 months have not been paid, 10,000 pensioners have been wrongly labelled as ghost pensioners resulting in over 22 months of unpaid pensions, while about 11,000 workers have been labelled as ghost workers by the state.

He said the decision to storm the state was a result of the refusal of Uzodimma to use social dialogue and collective bargaining to resolve the issues.
