Independence Day: NLC Sends Message To Nigerian Workers

The Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) has urged “downtrodden Nigerians who bear the marks or burden of broken promises, exploitation and corruption not to give up hope on their country.”

President of the NLC, Joe Ajaero said this in a statement to workers and Nigerians on independence day on Monday.

The statement reads: “On the occasion of Nigeria’s 64th independence anniversary celebration, we congratulate all Nigerians, especially workers for their sacrifice, resilience or robust spirit in spite of serial acts of betrayal of monumental proportions by the political leadership at various times and levels.

“We urge the downtrodden Nigerians who bear the marks or burden of these broken promises, exploitation and corruption to not give up hope on their country.

“In light of the fact that their sacrifice has been taken for granted for so long, they should learn to protest within the limits of the law against injustices and subversion of democratic norms, culture and values by the dominant political elite.

“It should be apparent to the citizenry that the leading political elite are not ready to do the right thing except they are compelled to do so.

“In the same vein, we would like to sound a note of caution to our political elite whose pre-occupation is to circumvent the principles and practice of popular democracy that undermining our democratic institutions can no longer be business as usual.
