In response to concerns raised by organized labour and a 14-day ultimatum, a crucial meeting was convened by the Minister Of State For Labour And Employment, Nkeiruka Onyenjeocha on Tuesday to facilitate open dialogue between the government and labour representatives. During the session, the government reiterated its commitment to the agreement signed on October 2, 2023.
The meeting served as a platform for the government to appeal to organized labour, urging unity and a collaborative effort to find common ground. The government assured Nigerians that concrete actions will be taken within the week to address the raised concerns, with ongoing efforts to swiftly achieve compliance.
“Be rest assured, Nigerians, that concrete actions will be taken within this week to address some of the concerns raised. Efforts are underway to achieve compliance as swiftly as possible”. Onyenjeocha said.
The government expressed gratitude to the leadership of the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC), the Trade Union Congress (TUC), and representatives of the Presidential CNG Initiative (Pi-CNG) for their active participation in this crucial dialogue. As the nation awaits further developments, the commitment to resolving the issues at hand remains steadfast.
