<\/p>\n

The Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) has announced plans to place names of governors in the states where workers are being owed salaries and pensions for several months on a \u201cwatch list\u201d.<\/p>\n

Mr Ayuba Wabba, President of the NLC, made this known while addressing the Nigeria Union of Pensioners (NUP) at its 17th anniversary on Tuesday Abuja.<\/p>\n

He said that beside \u201cnaming and shaming\u201d those governors, the NLC would soon direct Nigeria workers to monitor various airports in the country to stop such governors who may have completed their term from fleeing the country<\/p>\n

\u201cWe will instruct workers at the nation\u2019s airports to disallow and disgrace any governors trying to leave the country in order to enjoy themselves overseas.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have issued statements to these governors owing salaries, informing them that they cannot go anywhere to enjoy the monies they have carted away.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey will be disgrace and chases away. instead of using the money to make life good and build the country for the good of everybody, a few elites will embezzle what is meant for all for their personal use.\u201d<\/p>\n

Wabba, however, assured pensioners that the NLC would not relent it its effort to ensure the issue of minimum pension alongside the minimum wage, was addressed.<\/p>\n

He said that if the government must address the issue of pensioners, it must address the welfare of pensioners, this he said would ensure that workers desist from looting.\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
