This will only amount to human injustice of the highest order. It will also be tantamount to placing the cart before the horse if such a proposition is in the pipeline without first thinking of the aged seafarers.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe, as a Labour Union, will not sit aloof and watch our aged seafarers continue to suffer unnecessary penury after meritorious years of service to their fatherland. It is true that some of the elderly seafarers have died from various ailments, some from psychological torture and trauma, mental degradation, abject poverty, and so on, that weighed them down in depression.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt would be recalled that the former Minister of Transportation, Muazu Sambo, set up a committee involving two ministries, the Ministry of Transportation and the Labour Ministry, respectively. The said committee was charged with the responsibility of carrying out the physical verification exercise of the aged seafarers, which the Union thought would have brought some sort of succour; but to no avail. It is indeed unfortunate to say here that the committee has never met.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo, where do we go from here, when you want to re-float the NNSL with no consideration to the Seafarers who served the defunct carrier vessels? This is unheard of anywhere globally. Therefore, any plan for a new NNSL is a mirage in its conception, except when the needful is done.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe blue economy that is on the lips of every Nigerian today emerged as a global concept in 2012. Therefore, the Union\u2019s position as far as the new ministry is concerned cannot function without the inclusion of MWUN in all its ramifications.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHence, the Union must be part of the policy process, which must be seen to conform with the rules of social inclusion and collaboration, because the blue economy must be seen to strengthen social equity order; hence, our disposition, given the aged Seafarers debacle, which is yet to receive serious attention.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe President-General, who doubles as the Deputy President of the Nigeria Labour Congress, NLC, had before now prayed for the Minister to look into the nagging issue of the seafarers to see how he could bring it to a logical conclusion.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHowever, Prince Adeyanju who promised the Minister of the Union\u2019s support towards making sure that the nation achieves much in the sector in his tenure, also frowned at the Minister\u2019s projection on the re-floating of a new NNSL when he visited Lagos without putting into cognisance the plight of the disengaged aged seafarers, who were parts and parcels of the defunct national carrier as it were.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt will be unkind to the Union to hear any assertion by the Minister regarding a new NNSL without carrying along the previously disengaged seafarers concerning their entitlements, which have not been fully settled.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Say the re-floating of a new NNSL will be a mirage if the retired seafarers, who worked tirelessly with a deep sense of patriotism
