The Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC), Sokoto State Chapter, has lauded workers in the state for their full compliance in the 2-day warning strike embarked upon by the congress across the country.
Mr Abdullahi Aliyu, the state NLC Chairman, made the commendation while addressing newsmen in Sokoto on Wednesday.
Aliyu said the organised labor would continue to pursue workers entitlement and ensure the present economic hardship on citizens is generously addressed.
“Our workers and other affiliates of the NLC have shown dedication and commitment toward ensuring the success of our struggle for better living condition for all.
“We will continue to remain on our oath to support the government to achieve the desired economy that will provide food on the table of the poor and the general public,” he said.
The chairman also extolled the leadership style of Gov. Ahmed Aliyu, while assuring that the congress will continue to support his dedication and commitment.
“We are sensing a government that is fully inclusive, with a leader who distinguish himself as democrat not a ruler.
“This is a leader that before his 100 days in office has shown a great impact on governance, exemplified the importance of continuity in government,” he said.
Aliyu added that with the current commitment, if sustained, the state will experience the governor’s desire of making Sokoto a new state.
The labor leader further appreciated the governor for his pledge to initiate measures of supporting the civil servants in the state.
“One of the most important aspects is the restoration of the education levy which has been deducted from workers salary in the past six years,” he said.
