The Nigerian Labour Congress, on Monday, confirmed that it will no longer proceed with its nationwide strike planned for Wednesday.

The decision was part of resolutions announced by the Speaker, House of Representatives, Femi Gbajabiamila and confirmed by the President of the Nigerian Labour Congress, Joe Ajaero, after a nearly six-hour meeting between the Federal Government and the organised labour at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.
Monday’s engagement is the third in a series of meetings between the government and key labour stakeholders after the President, Bola Tinubu, announced the discontinuance of petroleum subsidy exactly one week ago.

At Monday’s meeting, the parties agreed that “The NLC will suspend notice of strike forthwith to enable further consultations.

“The TUC and the NLC to continue ongoing engagements with the Federal Government and secure closure on the resolutions.


“The labour centres and the Federal Government to meet on June 19, 2023 to agree on an implementation framework.”

Gbajabiamila also announced that the FG, TUC and NLC are to establish a joint committee to review the proposal of any wage increase or award and establish a framework and timeline for implementation.

The Federal Government, TUC and NLC will also review the $800m World Bank Financed Cash transfer scheme and propose inclusion of low-income earners in the program.

Monday’s resolution also include the review of the CNG conversion program earlier agreed with labour centres in 2021 and work out detailed implementation and timing.

The Labour centres and the FG will also review issues hindering effective delivery in the education sector and propose solutions for implementation.

The labour centres and the FG will review and establish the framework for completion of the rehabilitation of the nation’s refineries.

Joy and jubilation oshi woniyen? Corps members are yet to receive state allowance

There was joy and jubilation in Oyo State today as workers in the State received their April salary on the 24th of April 2020.

Sources close to some civil servant in the State confirmed that they go the alert this evening as against the usual practice of 25th of every month.


With Ramadan starting today and the need for most workers to get food stuff in the house in case there will be an extension in the restrictions going on the state, workers in the State have a course to be happy indeed.

The state Governor has also directed that 100 tailors in the State be employed to produce 1 million face mask, this is to ensure that workers and people in the State protect themselves against the scourge of the COVID-19.

Having looked at the case critically and seen different report from other media houses, I wish to take down this thread.
The Appeal court never queried the election of Gov. Makinde, it only queries the decision of the tribunal not to look at APC's case critically before throwing out the case.
It however still maintained that Gov. Seyi Makinde still remains the validly elected governor of the State!

The All Progressives Congress candidate in the governorship election in Oyo State, Mr. Bayo Adelabu has succeeded in his appeal against the election of Mr. Seyi Makinde of the People Democratic Party.

By a majority decision of 4 to 1, the panel justices on Monday in Ibadan upheld the three prayers of the APC candidate, ruling in his favour.

But the court failed to give a return that Adelabu is elected and should be sworn in to replace Governor Makinde.

Makinde was returned elected by the Independent National Electoral Commission and the election tribunal but Adelabu appealed the tribunal judgement at the Court of Appeal, which ruled in his favour this morning.

The implication is that the Supreme Court may have to resolve the debacle.

Details shortly…

The Joint National Public Service Negotiating Council (JNPSNC) has said there is no timeline on when the Federal Government would begin the full implementation of minimum wage to workers on all levels.

The General Secretary, JNPSNC Alade Lawal, said this in an interview in Abuja.

Lawal said that he was hopeful that both the federal government and the organised labour would arrive at a decision soon.

He said that negotiation with the government team may resume in a couple of days.
Lawal said: “It is still as it was. On the part of labour we are talking to our people, we are briefing them. You can call it mobilisation if you like. With the way they are working behind the scene we may be back to the negotiation table in a couple of days.

“This is not something that somebody can put a timeline. It is negotiation and when you negotiate you have fair deal from your side that you believe should be the ruling wage. They have their positions base on the numbers in the books.

“So when you have two sides of a coin and you are meeting you can’t put a timeline but I want to believe that if you follow the trends of discussions, follow the trends of development, follow the trend of sincerity on the part of government, you will agree with me that we are moving very close to either arriving t something or let us see how it goes.”

He dismissed the payment of minimum wage to workers on levels 1-6, stressing that as far as labour was concerned, the federal government had not paid minimum wage.

“As far as we are concerned they have not paid anything. It has no effect,” he added.

After 20years of Democracy, if we are still using the same constitution handed to us by this kaki boys, it shows that it is these kaki boys benefactors that are still in the corridors of power and can't effect the much needed constitutional change.

We failed to restructure
We failed to change the constitution
We failed to conduct credible elections
We failed to unite across ethnic divides

We clearly need a democratic revolution now!

A chieftain of the Yoruba apex socio-cultural organization, Afenifere, Chief Ayo Adebanjo, has noted that constitutional crisis in Nigeria and the imbalance in the polity are the main cause of agitation for a break-up by different groups in the country.

The lawyer and elder statesman said that it would be better if the country breaks up since the leaders refuse to restructure it.

According to him, “I have no objection to breaking up. People are talking of breaking up because the term of coming together has been abrogated by the northern Muslims who are dominating us,” he was quoted by Sun.

“This is why the young elements, extremists in the South- East, South – South, South –West and the Middle Belt are yearning for break-up just because of their refusal to yield to our demand of peaceful co-existence.”

On the recently reported crisis in the Presidency and the news of Vice president, Prof Yemi Osinbajo falling out of favour with President Muhammadu Buhari, the elder statesman blamed the constitution for the President’s action.

According to him, “It is just what I have said earlier. They are the people who aided and abetted the implementation of the wrong constitution because they give them the crumbs of the power. It is this constitution that empowers the president to make the vice president a market master. Whatever you are doing, the bottom line is the constitution.

“If it is not this constitution, would the president be doing all that; is it not the constitution that gives him all the powers; a constitution that makes him the most powerful head of state in the whole world.

“I have said it several times and I’m repeating it, we said it should be changed, but you say, no. This is not the constitution the founding fathers of the nation gave us.

1min 50sec ago this page view was 2400 now it's almost 6000. We no get job for Nigeria. Myself inclusive!

Moral of this message: Accept Jesus today. Tomorrow maybe too late. Just like Noah warned people in those days, people are warned again. Rapture is real, and the kind of tribulation that will befall the world is better not imagined!

unstoppable51:
From #FeedMeJesus.com, enjoy this Bible exposition on the Rapture.


“For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:

“Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.

“Wherefore comfort one another with these words.” 1 Thessalonians 4:16-18

You may never have come across the word “Rapture” in the Bible during your study times and of a truth, you will never come across it since the word itself is not used anywhere in the scriptures.

But that does not mean the message or doctrine of rapture is not scriptural since we can trace the message back to the Bible. In case you didn’t actually get what I just said, let me break it down.

The word “Rapture” was gotten from an ancient Latin word “raptus” which means “to snatch away, carry off or abduct.”

It is similar to the Greek word “Harpazo” which means “to seize, to carry off or snatch away by force.”

Now, although “raptus” from where “Rapture” is gotten, is not specifically used in the Bible. It’s Greek counterpart “harpazo” is found all over the New Testament translated as “Caught up” (1 Thessalonians 4:17, Rev.12:5, 2 Corinthians 12:2&4) and also as “caught away” in Acts 8:39.

Other places “harpazo” was used in the Bible includes: Matthew 13:19, John 6:15, John 10:28&29, Acts 23:10 etc. In all these places, it has to do with a forceful movement of something or someone by another.

So why is it important you know about this?

It is important because the Rapture has to do with the experience that awaits all who has put their faith in Jesus Christ as their Lord and Saviour from sin and its penalty, which is death (both spiritual death and the second death).

At the second coming of Christ, He will appear in the clouds and we which are alive at that moment and other believers who had died prior to that time, shall be caught up together with Him in the sky, safe from the tribulation that is coming upon the world.

Now, Here’s Why I Had To Write About This Topic

This message of the Rapture and the second coming of Jesus Christ that was intended (like we saw in our opening scripture) to be used to build hope, comfort and encourage believers to endure persecutions, hardships and whatever it is the world throws at them, has today become the greatest message that is used to manipulate, threaten, enslave and put men in bondage to fear, doubt and unbelief in the finished works of Christ.

Tell the average Christian today, “Jesus is coming soon!” and you have given him a reason to wear a serious face, be moody, sad and overly conscious of what he eats, drinks or wears. You will see the joy of Salvation disappear from him at the speed of light and the fear of Salvation completely overpower him.

Throughout that day, he will be searching for “unconfessed" sins to confess or what and what he needs to do restitution for so he don’t miss the rapture.

In his dreams from that very moment, he will repeatedly see everybody around him going to heaven except him due to reasons that has no real support in the Bible.

The reason for all these fears and torments most Christians experience whenever the word “Rapture” is mentioned is mostly due to lack of accurate knowledge of what the Redemptive works of Christ and the Rapture is all about.

Somewhere along the line, they have been made to believe that unless you are 100% sinless, you will not be raptured.

But can I shock you? That is a lie from religion and the pit of Hell.

The Rapture will never meet ANY man 100% sinless. Regardless of who he is and his episcopal title.

As a matter of fact, the doctrine of sinless perfection is complete hogwash and has no backing from the scripture.

No man born of a woman on this earth will claim to have reached a level in his Spiritual life where he or she no longer sins. No man, I say.

Our only hope or ticket for rapture is our faith in the sacrifice of Jesus Christ. The Bible never minced words about this when it said “…Christ in you, the hope of glory.” (Colossians 1:27)

You may say “But Jesus is coming for a glorious church without spot or wrinkles?”

Yes it true. But do you also know that He (Jesus) is the one that cleanses and sanctifies the church in order to present it to Himself without spots or wrinkles?

The Bible is clear on this. See Ephesians 5:25-27

“Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it;

“That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word,

“That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish.”

The apostle Jude in his writing also gave witness to this in Jude 1:24-25

“Now unto him that is able to keep you from falling, and to present you fautless before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy,

“To the only wise God our Saviour, be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and ever. Amen.”

The one who has believed in Jesus to save him from sin can never miss the rapture. Why? Because his Saviour being Jesus, is the one that cleanses, sanctifies, keeps and will present him faultless at that day.

No man can do this by himself regardless of how many times he confesses and promises never to sin again.

Does this mean we can now go ahead and sin as much as we want as believers since we will surely not miss the Rapture? God forbid! How can we that are the Lights in the world start walking in darkness?

How can we that have been enabled by Grace and the Spirit of God to say “No” to sin, embrace it again. Like the apostle Paul, I say again “God forbid!”

This truth I just shared with you about the Rapture was what the early Christians knew that made them stand before emperors and to greatly rejoice in the face of lions, fire and death.

While they were being burnt at stakes, history recorded that most of them wore the most beautiful smiles you can ever find, sang at the top of their voices about God’s great love from which nothing (including sin and death) can snatch them from.

Some shouted at the top of their voices with immeasurable joy, proclaiming “Maranatha” which means “Jesus is coming soon!” or “come soon Lord Jesus.” They were SURE their Saviour is coming and will NEVER leave them behind (dead or alive)

Today I say, our Saviour in whom we have redemption through His blood is coming and He will take us who have believed in Him for Salvation along. Having washed us by His blood.

This is the truth of the Rapture and being “rapturable.” Do not let any man enslave you again to doubt, fear, condemnation or whatever, using high sounding religious jargon.

“For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father.” Romans 8:15

“For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power; and of love, and of a sound mind.” 2 Timothy 1:7

The Rapture is not something to be afraid of, it is something to eagerly expect. Our Daddy is coming.

Glory to God!

Our redeemer is coming dear friends!

Jesus is coming. Rejoice and be glad!

Halleluyah!

Lalasticlala, do the needful now

The Federal High Court in Abuja on Monday gave the Independent National Electoral Commission the leeway to continue and conclude the collation of the results of the March 9, 2019 governorship election in the Tafawa Balewa Local Government Area of Bauchi State.

Delivering judgment, Justice Inyang Ekwo set aside his earlier order of March 19, 2019 which stopped the collation of the results.

After declining jurisdiction to hear the substantive case, the judge ruled in his judgment on Monday that “the defendant (INEC) should be allowed to continue its constitutional duty”.

“There is no legal impediment before the defendant to go on with the decision of the defendant to execute its decision in its press release,” the judge ruled.
