Pay salaries, workers are hungry – NLC begs Buhari amid COVID-19
Leonard Nkah, Ebonyi NLC Chairman, made the appeal in Abakaliki on Friday in a message to mark the 2020 May Day celebrations in the state.
He said that timely payment of salaries, remunerations and other palliatives would serve as boosts to enable workers observe all precautionary guidelines, regulations and directives that would keep them safe from the virus. ”Let them pay salaries and remunerations with every other package as a palliative to the workers to help them observe the guidelines such as the lockdown, sit-at-home directive, use of face masks and regular hand washing.
“That, it is only the provisions of food and welfare packages and the availability of such that can help both the workers and the government achieve a successful fight against the pandemic and win this war threatening our health and lives.”
