Kaduna Govt Declares NLC President, Others Wanted
The Kaduna State government has
declared the President of the Nigeria Labour Congress, NLC, Ayuba Wabba wanted.
The state Governor, Nasir Elrufai
announced this on his verified Twitter handle @elrufai on Tuesday morning.
He said the NLC president and
others labour leaders are declared wanted for economic sabotage and attacks on
public infrastructure in Kaduna State under the Miscellaneous Offences Act.
He called on anyone that knows
the whereabouts of the NLC President to contact the Kaduna State Ministry of
Justice promising to reward the person handsomely.
Wabba had earlier on Monday led
workers in the state on a warning strike following the recent disengagement of
over seven thousand civil servants at the state and local governments by the
state government.
In solidarity with the protest on
Monday, aviation workers also shut down operations of Kaduna International
Airport (KIA).
Other affiliate unions including
the National Union of Petroleum Employees of Nigeria, NUPENG, National Union of
Electricity Employees of Nigeria, NUEE, National Union of Textile, Tailoring
and Garment Workers of Nigeria are also in the protest.
