NLC opposes substitution of Kokori’s name as Chairman of NSITF board vanguardngr.com vanguardnews
Mr Ayuba Wabba, NLC President said this at the Ministry of Labour and Employment where the board was to have been inaugurated on Thursday in Abuja.
“So, close to three years now, they have refused to inaugurate the board due to one reason or the other and we can see today that they do not want somebody that is transparent to manage workers money just for no reasons just to delay the process. “The third reason was that after cleaning the place, he needed to implement the report and that he said he needed two weeks,” he said.
“Enough of one person administrator to manage our money and our resources because public office is public trust, let us not allow a situation where people will continue to feast on our resource and claimed that they are actually fighting corruption. “We want transparency and good governance, it our money, we cannot sweep issues under the carpet, it is workers money and their social security, and we need to protect that money. We will be on standby until the ministers do the needful,” he said.
“Any board that is inaugurated without Kokori as Chairman of board will not be acceptable to Nigerian workers,” he said.“I stood my grounds for democracy and I have fought for this county, there were temptation to take the biggest brides but I choose to stand for democracy, so 20 years after democracy, Frank Kokori is being oppressed by somebody like Ngige.
