Africa Press-Nigeria:<\/p>\n

The Ekiti State organised labour, has given a 14-day notice to Governor Kayode Fayemi to pay all outstanding benefits to workers or face indefinite industrial action.<\/p>\n

A letter dated July 16 and addressed to Fayemi, said the ultimatum commences from Monday, July 20 and elapses on August 3, within which the governor is expected to redeem his pledge or face mass action.<\/p>\n

The letter was jointly signed by the Chairmen of Nigerian Labour Congress, Com. Kolapo Olatunde, his counterparts in the Trade Union Congress, Com. Sola Adigun and Joint Negotiating Council, Com. Kayode Fatomiluyi, as well as their Secretaries.<\/p>\n

In a statement made available to journalists in Ado Ekiti, on Saturday, the labour demanded immediate payment of outstanding workers\u2019 promotion arrears, deductions, salaries, allowances, bonuses and other benefits within the stipulated time, to avert industrial strife in Ekiti.<\/p>\n

It regretted that they had written over five letters to the governor reminding him of the need to redeem his pledge, but without correspondence responses, which they branded as an act of \u201cbetrayal\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cArising from foregoing, we felt dazed and betrayed by the state government for not reciprocating our patriotic zeal and disposition to the state corporate governance by not acceding to any of workers\u2019 demands since the beginning of the present administration which is now close to two years. This is painful.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
