The Organized Labour in Kogi State has issued a 14-day fresh ultimatum to the Kogi State Government to implement the N30,000 new minimum wage or it will embark on indefinite strike action.<\/p>\n

Addressing a press conference in Lokoja on Friday, shortly after the meeting of labour leaders, the Kogi State Chairman, Nigeria Labour Congress, (NLC) Comrade Onuh Edoka lamented that, the current administration in the state led by Governor Yahaya Bello<\/a> has not added any value to workers since it came on board in 2016.<\/p>\n

The NLC Chairman noted that the committee on the minimum wage set up on 14th February 2020 by Governor Bello had refused to submit its report for the implementation of the new wage and its consequential adjustment of 23 percent.<\/p>\n

Edoka added that Bello\u2019s administration has refused to cashback promotion arrears for workers and has continued to pay percentage salaries to Local Government workers and pensioners in the state without considering the present economic hardship.<\/p>\n

He explained that the strike action will take effect after the expiration of the two-week ultimatum which begins from 25th January 2022.<\/p>\n

Explaining further, Edoka said,\u201d The house has resolved that all workers of Kogi State should note that an ultimatum will be served on the State Government as from 25th January 2022. And to this end, the ultimatum served on the Government will be 14 days ultimatum. And after the 14 days\u2019 ultimatum, all workers of the state will proceed on indefinite strike action.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was equally resolved that this government has not added any value to workers since the inception of this administration on the following ground. This government has not implemented promotion with cash backing for Kogi workers since its inception. The last promotion that was implemented in Kogi State was in 2013. To this end, Kogi workers have been on the same salary which they have been upon since 2011.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was equally resolved that the value not added to Kogi workers include none payment of leave bonus, none implementation of annual increment. At the end, the livelihood of Kogi workers has always been the same making the workers completely poor.<\/p>\n

\u201dIt was equally resolved in this house that the percentage salary paid to Kogi workers at the Local Government level, inclusive teachers, pensioner\u2019s and health workers be brought to an end with immediate effect.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was equally resolved in this house that in view of this, the Kogi State Government should ensure that labour is engaged in fruitful discussion or else nothing will stop the strike action as it ought to be as the ultimatum will begin on the 25th and it will expire on the date therein\u201d.<\/p>\n

He emphasized that the planned industrial actions will cover all categories of workers in Kogi State.<\/p>\n

\u201dOnce you are a State Government worker or Local Government worker, you must be part of this strike. It is so annoying that since 2020 when a committee was put in place to return its report within four weeks, it has turned to become exactly two years. The union in this state and the entire leadership, including workers have continued to show understanding to the government of the day that is why we never allowed any dispute\u201d.<\/p>\n

While apologizing to Kogi workers for not yielding to their call to embark on industrial action in the last two years, Edoka said all efforts to meet with the government to improve the welfare of workers had proven abortive.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is an understanding to show peace, and understanding for any leadership to succeed. But this has been eroded by the actions of the Kogi State Government\u201d he said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
