FCTA Workers Protest at Industrial Court, Demand Removal of Minister
FCTA workers, backed by the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC), protested at the Industrial Court in Abuja, demanding the removal of the FCT Minister. The workers accused the FCT authorities of neglecting welfare issues like unpaid promotions, poor working conditions, and lack of essential tools.
The protest, part of a total indefinite strike, highlighted the workers' grievances against the FCT leadership's alleged high-handedness in labor matters. The NLC expressed full support for the strike, emphasizing the workers' right to protest until their demands are met.
The workers marched peacefully within the court premises, displaying placards and chanting solidarity songs. The protest continued until the FCT authorities issued an official response to the workers' demands.
