After Donating To Jonathan’s Campaign, Kogi Governor To Sack 6000 Workers For Lack Of Funds


The Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC), Kogi chapter, has advised the state government against planned retrenchment of over 6,000 workers from the state civil service.
The advice is contained in a communique signed by the state Chairman of the NLC, Mr James Odaudu, and Secretary of the Trade Union Congress (TUC), Mr J.O. Kolawole, at the end of a meeting of the organised labour in Lokoja on Sunday.

The communique said that the State Executive Council (SEC) of Labour in the state had resolved that rather than embarking on mass retrenchment, government should allow the Implementation Committee of the 2014 Ogunmola Screening report to do its job.

The congress said the implementation committee’s job had been taken over by the state Ministry of Finance, Budget and Planning Ministry and the Accountant General’s Office.

The communique said that any attempt by government to retrench the over 6,000 workers and removal of their names from pay vouchers as from December would be opposed.

“SEC in session, having noticed government’s plan to send away over 6,000 workers in Kogi State, hereby resolves that all workers in the state should reject salaries for the month of December, 2014, to protect the job security of our members,” the communiqué said.

The union reiterated its stance that failure of the government to do the necessary would affect the peaceful industrial relations in the state.

It also condemned the installment payment of the 2013 leave bonus spread over a period of 10 months and wondered when government would commence the payment of 2014 annual leave bonus.

The congress commended the support, cooperation and loyalty of members in 2014 and called for the sustenance, saying that much more was required of them in the years ahead.

Even if APC takes over which is impossible, they will either retrench in the face of declining oil wealth or render Kogi government penniless

My friend

Support the call for

Resource control

Fiscal federalism

Privatization

Political federalism

Decentralization of Nigeria

Restructuring of Nigeria

Institutions submitting their quarterly activities to public scrutiny


Which are the fastest route to economic diversification , citizenry prosperity and political greatness

Only the ignorants think a change in party will bring respite

Oil wealth is dwindling.

Until we encourage the following, Ghana will be better than Nigeria


Resource control

Fiscal federalism

Privatization

Lie!!! That is fallacy of hasty generalization. That GEJ failed in his resources management does not mean Buhari will fail. Why is our ECA account almost empty despite the long years of selling oil above benchmark?
Billions of dollars have been withdrawn for frivolous contract which are biased in sharing. While billions naira worth of contracts are going on in the NW, NC,SS, & SE, states like Ogun, Osun, Ekiti, Oyo cannot be proud of a single major FG project. What a biased FG?
