The organised labour cancelled this year’s celebration of workers’ day in Kogi State, in protest of the non-payment of workers’ salaries and pensions of retirees.
The leadership of Nigeria Labour Congress, NLC, has chided the Kogi State governor, Yahaya Bello, for using soldiers and other security operatives to harass and arrest students of the state-owned tertiary institutions who were protesting in Lokoja on Monday over the continued closure of their due to non-payment of salaries of academic staff.
The Supreme Court has given reasons why it upheld the election of Yahaya Bello as the duly elected Governor of Kogi State, and why it rejected the prayers of James Faleke.
