LG Workers To Commence nationwide Warning Strike Today by ayooluwa2(m): 7:07am On Jul 29, 2013
Indications emerged yesterday that
local government workers across the
country were getting set to commence
a three-day warning strike today.
This is to protest Senate’s refusal to
endorse local government autonomy
in the ongoing amendment of the
country’s constitution.
A statement signed by the state
Secretary of the Kwara State branch of
the Nigeria Union of Local
Government Employees, NULGE,
Comrade Afolabi Abayomi, had
directed all workers of the councils in
the state to join their colleagues in the
nationwide strike action.
Abayomi in the statement said
NULGE’s National Executive Council
meeting which held in Abuja last week
had resolved to go on strike because
it was aware that some senators who
voted against local government
autonomy did so because of their
“selfish interests and inordinate
ambitions”.
“The union is aware that some
senators who voted against local
government autonomy did so for
reasons of their inordinate ambitions
to become governors and continue
the looting spree, the entrenchment
of poverty and lack of development at
the grassroots,” he said.
“If the labour of our people during
public hearings to have a local
government that is grass root
development- oriented, people driven,
free from executive lawlessness,
encumbrances and endless pilfering,
will not be in vain, then the Senate
must revisit the issue of local
autonomy immediately”, they added.
