Africa Press-Nigeria:
ABUJA- Against the backdrop of the difficulties posed by the Coronavirus pandemic, the Peoples Redemption Party, PRP, has enjoined Nigerian workers to think outside the box to mitigate effects of hard-hit economy.
As the world marks the International Workers Day today, the party said in a statement issued by its national chairman, Mallam Falalu Bello, that Nigerian workers face tough times as countries across the globe seek ways to reposition their economies given the attendant chaos caused by COVID-19.
The statement read in part: “As Nigerian workers mark this year’s May Day. they must take time to mull over these dire challenges which stare them in the face directly. They must strategize creatively to find ways and means of confronting these challenges and fashioning out sustainable and durable exit solutions.
“This year’s May Day commemoration is taking place in very difficult and inauspicious circumstances, not only for Nigerian workers but for workers all over the world, largely as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. This pandemic has resulted, and continues to cause massive job losses and wage cuts for workers, petty producers and other small time producers and service providers in Nigeria and across the globe.
