Governor of Kaduna State, Mallam Nasir El-Rufai, has vowed not to back down from sacking workers in the state after they embarked on industrial action over alleged mass sackings in the state.

The workers on Monday, staged mass protest in Kaduna metropolis, to mark flag off of the action.

However, reacting to the workers’ decision, El-Rufai said it will not alter plans to sack some of them.

In his verified Facebook page, the governor posted, “Kaduna State Government affirms that the conditions that compel it to rightsize are not altered by the NLC’s campaign of economic and social sabotage.

“The NLC showed in 2017 that it has no interest in public welfare, going violent over 21,780 failed teachers who KDSG replaced with 25,000.”

Nigerian Labour unions began a five-day warning strike in Kaduna State on Monday.

NLC National President, Comrade Ayuba Wabba, said at the flag-off of the action that it would run its full course unless the state government attended to the workers grievances.

He said the national leadership of the NLC had been informed that the grievances included the sacking of 7,000 workers from local governments in the state.

“We are also aware that in the Primary Health Care Development Agency, 1,700 workers were sacked.

“All these are happening in the face of exorbitant increment in tuition fees , high cost of living and other uncalled for actions in ministries and agencies in the state,’’ he said.

“Fuel stations, hospitals, banks, the railway, and airport, among others have been closed because we must take our destiny in our hands if the situation in Kaduna State and in Nigeria at large cannot change.

“We cannot accept the bitter pills; we are here in Kaduna today because the labour law in Nigeria says before you can declare redundancy, labour shall be consulted and we were never consulted.

`The governor said he has consulted the National Union of Local Government Employees, but the union is here with us; we want to tell the world that a lot of information from the government is false.

“We have the right to protect peacefully without being intimidated or harassed.

“The governor should go after criminals, especially kidnappers and bandits terrorising the state and not workers who are earning their legitimate wages,’’ Wabba added.

All this desperate attempts to remove Christians from Kaduna state workforce will be avenged in due time. El Rufai is evil

Hell Rufais method is very wicked and sadly effective

As a evil FCT Minister, almost all houses of influential people without approved building plan got demolished, he chased several unregistered Transport shuttle to replace them with his red busses

As a Governor he vowed never to pay ransome to bandits so as not to continue their business

Now he wants to reduce cost of governance by sacking useless civil servants gossiping all day accross Secretariat all day and getting paid every month

Hell Rufai....

That's what you get when an unstoppable object meets an immovable object.

Unfortunately Nigerians aren't cut out to discussing issues, we play politics with everything hence I needn't say more.
