The Nigeria Labour Congress, NLC, has called on Nigerians to
join it to build a coalition of Nigerian people that will be good leaders and
followers and influence positive changes.
The NLC President, Mr Joe Ajaero, made the call in a
statement on Friday, following the closing of the 2023 Rain School of the
congress, NAN reports.
The event was held in Uyo from July 17 to July 21.
Ajaero said that the coalition would include the suffering, oppressed and deprived members of the society.
“Hunger and poverty transcend ethnic and religious
boundaries, and it is our collective and, indeed, civic duty to save ourselves
and the nation from the clutches of unfavourable policies,” he said.
The labour leader urged Nigerians to provide good leadership
in their various spheres of influence.
“We have all spent a fruitful week learning new skills and
getting empowered.
“The struggles are for a more humane and inclusive globe,
where workers will no longer be seen as appendages, but as critical players
toward greater wealth creation and development, “ he said.
Ajaero urged participants of the school to pass the lessons
they learnt to others.
He also urged them to apply the lessons to changing their
environments for better.
“Be worthy ambassadors of this school, and let the light
that has been lit in you here shine brightly wherever you go and in whatever
you do,” he added.
