A group of retired workers under the aegis of Lagos Assembly of Labour Veterans and Trade Unionists have demanded the resignation of the National Chairman of the Labour Party, LP, Mr Julius Abure; and President of Nigeria Labour Congress, NLC, Mr Joe Ajaero, over their continual leadership struggle.
His words: “For many of you that have been keenly following the unfolding crisis rocking the Labour Party at the apex of its leadership structure, the idea of holding this press briefing will surely come to you, as a foregone conclusion. It is even more so, against the painful background that at the core of this profound crisis, is the endless tussle for the control of the party going on between the party’s embattled chairman, Julius Abure, and the president of the NLC, Joe Ajaero.
“On the contrary, Nigerian workers have been everywhere abandoned to their fate, consigned to face a gloomy future, totally devoid of delightful hopes and cheering promises. As the prospect to thus escape from the grip of multi-dimensional poverty dims for the masses of our people, the space to impose more burdens on the working class continues to be fully occupied by harsher economic policies.
“We hardly need to scratch our heads in search of concrete evidence to affirm this, as the real life experience under which workers live in the last few months bears bountiful testimonials in this connection.
