This is a blatant lie!<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe fact is that the company\u2019s management, in a bid to protect its super profit, has the history of relying on the instrumentality of the state (police, judiciary, DSS and ministry of labour) to intimidate, harass and persecute workers and activists who openly oppose the company\u2019s anti-labour practices like casualization or demand better pay and decent working conditions<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe strongly believe that the circumstances surrounding the killing and brutalization of the protesting workers, including the claim that Federal Government has since last year granted the organised private sector a tax waiver with a directive that the money saved from such is used to provide palliatives to their employees, deserve to be given a thorough investigation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is in the light of this we call for an immediate intervention of state leaderships of both the NLC and the TUC with a view to ensuring that all the workers arrested and currently in detention are released and concerns of the generality of workers in the company, including several cases of anti-workers and indecent labour practices are adequately investigated and addressed,\u201d the group stated.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About Nigeria Follow Africa-Press<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Nigeria.
