Workers threaten Ajimobi over 8 months’ salary owed
The Oyo State Trade Union Congress (TUC) has issued a five-day ultimatum to the state government to “immediately offset” a backlog of eight months’ unpaid salaries to workers.
Comrade Andrew Emelieze, chairman of the state chapter TUC, issued the warning in Ibadan following the expiration of the period offered to the government.
The union, which described the alliance between the government and the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) as unholy, emphasised that a recent deal signed to end the industrial deadlock was not a true reflection of the yearnings of the various unions.
