President of Nigeria Labour
Congress (NLC) Comrade Ayuba Wabba has asked the Minister of Labour and
Employment, Senator Chris Ngige to immediately inaugurate the board of the
Nigeria Social Insurance Trust Fund (NSITF) with Chief Frank Kokori as chairman
or face the wrath of workers.
Wabba, who spoke at the May Day
celebration in Abuja, said there will be no peace for the Minister if he fails
to inaugurate the board, as they will no longer allow him to manage the funds
of the organisation.
He said: “We have tolerated Ngige
and his antics long enough. From this May Day, we will thenceforth not allow
him to toy with the funds of NSITF which are contributions bon behalf of the
toiling workers of Nigeria in the private sector.
“In all our years of dealing with
Ministers of the Federal Republic, we have never come across one as dishonest
and deceitful as Dr. Ngige.
“From our account of what has
transpired since 2017, it is very obvious that the Minister has been bent on
manipulating the situation and bring up one deceit or the other to enable him
remain the sole manager of NSITF as long as he remain Minister of Labour and
Employment”.
