THE leadership of the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) and the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) yesterday called for economic sanctions against Morocco for her resistance to granting political independence to the people of Saharawi Republic. The two bodies also warned Africa’s leading billionaire, Alhaji Aliko Dangote, to desist from patronizing the Moroccan govern­ ment under the guise of business. Speaking at the occasion to mark the inauguration of the Na­ tional Movement For The Liberation of Western Sahara, the NLC President, Comrade Ayuba Wabba, said the condition of the people of Saharawi was worrisome, and urged that the world should force Morocco and its collaborators to stop oppressing and plundering the resources of the Saharawi people by giving them economic sanctions. The labour leader also accused Dangote of working against the liberation of the Saharawi people by his continuous business dealings with Morocco, threatening to enlist Dangote in the black list of those opening frontiers and comfort zones for Moroccan colonialism. He said: “We are calling on Aliko Dangote to henceforth stop his business dealings with the Moroccan government, which in turn has been to the detriment of the Saharawi people. We are saying that should he insist, he should not be surprised to see his name in the list of those who have been working against this emancipation because of selfish gains. “The NLC will not hesitate to ensure that their business inter­ ests will also be visited by our actions. Let me assure all of us that until we are able to liberate the people of Western Sahara, until we are able to place economic sanctions on the supporting collaborators, we can’t continue to enjoy the liberty and freedom that we have been able to get through the struggle we embarked on over the years. This is because; injury to one is injury to all of us. Therefore, we have to work together to make sure that these people are liberated. The situation of the people over there is worrisome especially those living along the coast of Algeria.” The Dangote Group in a reaction yesterday by its Chief Cor­ porate Communications Officer, Mr. Tony Chiejina said the com­ pany’s business policy aligned with Nigeria’s best interest. Chiejina also said that, “as a responsible corporate entity, we consciously promote peace and justice in all countries where we operate.”

Meaning what?

Is that there job?....yeye dey smell

Oh yes. No wonder Buhari is flexing around the world unperturbed while the masses suffer. Confusion everywhere, those who are supposed to pressure the government to sit up are busy attacking their neighbor while their house is being burned down to arches. To even think they have similar scenario at their backyard but nobody has had them talk makes them look more silly.

When is NLC and ASUU going to protest the refugee situation Buhari has plagued the nation with? Or they follow chop Aisha jollof rice like my fellow progressives. Gbawe aresa omenka ngeneukwenu egift demdem.

What of Biafra?
Same request but different reaction from Buhari because Islam is not the Religion of Biafra?

God Dey!!

Op, tell me u r joking.
Are u trying to tel me dat while Nigerias' economy is being crippled and rolled into the back pocket of some few people whom the press continue to see dem as saints and messiah, the former hope n voice of the average Nigerian is playing to the galary not remembering what its workers are passing through instead it is people of Saharawi that is most important to dem.
If this was a country where the will of people has a voice, the leadership of NLC and ASUU would be removed with immediate effect.
When your own country is upside down because of the "I must rule Nigeria as President" they are not seeing anything wrong but dat of morrocw is their problem.
How about dem asking President Buhari to grant Biafra same?

Who did we offend in this country? Am considering porting to hell fire sef, who wan follow me?
