NLC in Kebbi Denies Workers' Suffering Claims by ADC
The Kebbi State chapter of the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC), represented by chairman Comrade Murtala Usman, has dismissed allegations from the African Democratic Congress (ADC) that workers in the state are suffering. During a news conference in Birnin Kebbi, Usman stated that the NLC cannot accept such sweeping claims.
He highlighted that since taking office in 2023, Governor Nasir Idris has made significant efforts to enhance the welfare of civil servants in Kebbi State. Notably, he was the first governor in the North West zone and among several states in the southern region to approve a minimum wage of N75,000 shortly after the federal government announced its intention to increase the minimum wage for Nigerian workers.
Usman also reaffirmed the NLC's commitment to independence and a non-partisan stance in its operations.
