The Nigerian Labour Congress has threatened to resist the dismissal of its Ogun state chapter chairman Akeem Ambali and the chairman of the Nigerian Union of Teachers by the state governor Ibikunle Amosun.

Punch reports that the general secretary of the congress Peter Ozo-Eson said the decision of the state was illegal and that the labour movement will resist it.

On Monday, October 31, the Ogun state government dismissed the two labour leaders and suspended 14 other civil servants for committing offences contrary to the state civil service rule.

The state government also denied claims that the action was an aftermath of protest carried out by the congress members against the state.

“The NLC and the TUC’s combined team has already been dispatched to the state to intervene in the matter.”

“It means he has declared an industrial war and we will have no choice but to also ensure that industrial peace does not return to the state because such a sacking is illegal and we cannot allow it to happen.”

Meanwhile, Ambali has also said that the national presidents of NLC and TUC Ayuba Wabba and Boboi Kaigama alongside leaders of the National Joint Negotiating Council would participate in a rally by NLC Ogun state chapter.

The rally, Ambali said would hold at the state secretariat of the NLC in Abeokuta on Wednesday, October 2.
