Covid-19: Labour Unions Reject Deduction of Workers' Salaries by Kaduna Govt

The Join Unions of Tertiary Institutions of Kaduna State and the state chapter of the Nigerian Labour Congress have rejected the 25 per cent deduction of workers’ salaries by the state government.

JUTIKS statement jointly signed by its Chairman, Mr. Noah Danlami, and the Secretary, Mr. Jibril Makama, argued that providing palliatives to cushion the effect of Covid-19 lockdown on citizens is the sole responsibility of government, insisting that such responsibilities should not be shifted to workers already burdened with responsibilities.

“The government said that no public servant will have less than N50,000 monthly to manage in this emergency period. But this is not true as majority of workers are currently servicing different loans. JUTIKS advised the state government to explore other sources of funding instead of extracting from the meagre salaries of helpless civil servants of the state.
