OLADD: Bro,there is nothing dangerous there.who provided the eagle square in Abuja for NLC election?? Obviously the FG,so they dnt know the NLC president.why dialogue wtith the secretary?? The president of NLC is wabba nd the vice is Amechi where Ajero is the secretary.FG is just trying to play a useless card in other to benefit their wish. If am wrong, why drag One faction of NLC to court nd then reach an agreement with the other NLC body,does that making any iota of sense. |

AZeD1:Better for the Gov't but to the detriment of employees because there will be no one to fight their course, just like the issue of minimum wage, if their is no strong NLC leader to fight the course, FG may pay lip service to it, later they may say, we don't know who and who to negotiate with and invariably who will suffer it, if not employees. FG is just being smart, if during labour's day they didn't recognise one faction and now trying to bring it in just to cause confusion and make the agitation non-effective, then the downtrodden will be at the receiving end, not those being fed through government purses. |

cyprex: Just take a look at your post again. A recognised faction of NLC decided to stage a walk-out and all the govt could do was to start negotiating with a parallel faction and you think that upholds similitude of decency? Common! |

hotdi: As a point of correction, govt should be fighting for the interest of the citizenry rather than pursuing self-serving ones and that's what Buhari administration is doing. |

OLADD: Only one party was willing to negotiate.The other said 86 or nothing. The government negotiated with the ones willing to discuss. |

OLADD: In otherwords u are saying it would have been better if he wasn't dealing with anyone of them right. Anyway, not only a faction of NLC ignored the strike. TUC, NUPENG, PENGASSAN also ignored. |
Re: NLC Strike: Apc Is Setting A Dangerous Precedence. by OLADD: 8:58am On May 19, 2016 |
Tokety7: Everyone knows Wabba-led NLC is the officially recognised one. I repeat, dealing with two factions simultaneously is a height of treachery. It's condemnable and repugnant. |
Re: NLC Strike: Apc Is Setting A Dangerous Precedence. by Tokety7: 9:02am On May 19, 2016 |
OLADD: U are wrong. Not everyone. If not, the second faction wouldn't even have followers at all. Where u see treachery, I see stupidity and foolishness on the path of NLC for not keeping their house in order. As it is at the Federal level so it is here in rivers where NLC has two distinct factions. It's in the interest of govt that nlc should break up in pieces. The more the piece the better for govt. Stop hating, instead Channel ur energy in urging NLC to arrange herself properly. |

OLADD:allthingsgood:Firstly, I am not a wailer but a concerned Nigerian who's after a prosperous, egalitarian, unpolarized, progressive and peaceful nation. 1. First off, you are really a wailer and you do not sound like a concerned Nigerian 2. You sound either confused or simply irrational. You could be well be within your perogative to be a wailer and argue your position intelligently and with facts. Your choice of sentiments is a bottom low That said It is logical, wise and magnanimous of FG to call both factions into negotiation, for one simple reason, none should be left out. The FG could have chosen to recognise a faction, yet chose not to do so. A reasonable person should have seen the act of the FG has being more pragmatic and nationalistic. You should try to sound less ridiculous in your arguements. What is the meaning of this statement yes it's true NLC was fractionalized before the advent of Buhari's administration but the last govt did not officialize or magnify the divisions. This is terribly absurd..... If you're not lazy, you should research the following, and later come back and tell us what APC/PMB's government did to Labour 1. Have you bothered to ask why Labour is factionalised? 2. Have you bothered to ask what Ayuba faction put on the table that was totally rejected by both FG delegates and Ajaero faction? 3. What Ayuba faction did with the over N2b that GEJ's government gave to labour for the housing estate, which is unaccounted for and the land still empty? (Tip - this is one of the grouse that led to the fractions) 1 Like |

tbaba1234: Ajero faction's stance was not based on principle but an attempt to water down the towering influence of Wabba faction. I think the faction that stood its ground on N86 price retention was more sincere. The rationale for the geometric increase from N86 to N145 to me, negates all logic. |

mapet: Anybody that sees how lengthy your epistle looks might easily make a mistake of believing you made sense not knowing it's nothing but empty bunkum. Now, take a faddy look at these; 1. Negotiating with two feuding factions of a Union over a single subject for the purpose of currying their favour is nothing but a shameful act of divisiveness. If talking to the two factions was so imperative as you claimed, why did the same Buhari govt ignore the Ajero faction on Workers' May Day Celebration? Does that ring a bell in your ears? What that simply connotes is that this administration had given tactical approval to Wabba's authentic NLC from inception but decided to court Ajero faction surreptitiously just to cause further divisions in the rank and file of NLC. I insist that's a condemnable act. 2. There's nothing the Wabba's NLC placed before the FG other than complete reversal of the price increase. The govt was trying to be smart by mingling Minimum Wage negotiation with fuel price hike. Talks on minimum wage had gone off before the latest price increase hence, the two are separate and incongruent. It was on the initial price of N86 both factions of the NLC premised their respective agitations for N56,000 and N90,000 MW respectively and not the current price of N145 if you care to know. 3. On the alleged N2b given to Wabba-led NLC by Jonathan's govt, that shouldn't be your headache but Buhari's. Has the EFCC gone moribund not to beam its searchlight on such fraud, if it indeed exists? To further buttress how contradictory your statements are, you are now suggesting that Buhari is ready to negotiate with a corrupt Wabba-led NLC? No matter how smartly you play around with words, what's bad is bad. The Nigerian govt is out to cause further divisions in labour just to silence any opposition to its oppressive, elitist, imperial, self-centered and trial-and-error governance. Simple. |

OLADD: At least I get a credit of smarts in "playing with words"........ You? You argued very unintelligently abinitio........... 1. If your point two is not outright attempt at sophistry, it will be a shame to twist what is already in public domain. Except you have not been following media (which is obvious) you cannot deny the statement below; Joe Ajaero, factional president of the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC), has denounced the proposed mass action by the Ayuba Waba-led splinter group against the fuel price hike. He told journalists the timing and motive of the proposed strike action was wrong and accused the Waba-led NLC of asking that the federal government write off the N2 billion loan collected by the group for the purchase of buses in 2012.https://www.newsbreak.ng/2016/05/nlc-runs-trouble-proposed-strike-action-faction-backs/ I know your comprehension capacity can decide to holiday when it is critically needed, but to twist facts and what you assume I meant, is shallow. Whatever "corruption" in NLC is not my bother, they have internal mechanisms to address that. What I simply put, is the reason for what factionalised NLC, what Waba-faction brought to the table. 2. Unfortunately yo do not let you understand that in negotiations, parties come with both mandates and concessions. Your misunderstanding of why a minimum wage discussion should come in that negotiation simply shows you have a lot to learn. You condemn the FG for proposing to discuss minimum wage, yet conveniently left out the demand (albeit belated and opportunistic) as quoted below “Again, we demanded that the electricity tariff imposed on the people last January should also be reversed. But, government said they were not ready to discuss such things. 3. So if we got your drift, the FG should only negotiate with Waba faction? That is simply your personal opinion. That opinion I believe is not well thought through........no wonder you're on NL and competent people are running the government. That the FG attended a factions event on Labour day and did not the other translates to nothing. The FG did not make any statement to that effect. What is most unfortunate is your warped reasoning. How will you imagine the FG will give approval (tacit or public) to a faction of Labour when both factions are in court? |

mapet: Be steadfast in defending the atrocities of Buhari's govt but remember there's a reward for everything. I won't bother to prolong this conversation with you any longer but take it or leave it, this is 1985 scenario playing out and we know how it ended. I rest my case here. |
