The Nation Newspaper NURTW to Ajaero: don’t involve us in your dispute with Fed Govt
has warned the President of the Nigeria Labour Congress , Joseph Ajaero, not to involve the transport union in the umbrella union’s tussle with the Federal Government over fuel subsidy issues.The NLC had, in a statement credited to Ajaero, threatened that the labour movement would not attend any meeting called or involving the Labour and Employment Minister Simon Bako Lalong.
But reacting to the NLC allegation, NURTW’s Acting General Secretary Kayode Agbeyangi accused the NLC of crying more than the bereaved. “But after the first meeting, Baruwa refused to attend subsequent meetings, citing ill-health. And the minister felt that a single individual should not hold the union to ransom, hence he gave a directive that the process of getting new leaders for the union should commence,” he said.
“NURTW is a registered body with its own constitution and we have been conducting our affairs in conformity with the union’s constitution.
