NLC pickets LP secretariat in Edo
In line with the directives of the national leadership of the Nigeria Labour Congress, NLC, the Edo State Council of the Union has picketed the State Secretariat of the Labour Party, LP.
The national leadership of the union had on Tuesday, March 19, 2024 ordered the picketing of all State secretariats of the Labour Party across the country over alleged financial impropriety and contempt of court by the National Chairman of the Party, Julius Abure.
Picketing the state secretariat of the party on Thursday in Benin City, the union accused Abure of running the party like a personal business.
Suleiman Abubakar, the State Vice Chairman of NLC, who led other members of the union to picket the party’s office, opined that the party belongs to the NLC and therefore it should be carried along in all schemes.
