Members of the Trade Union Congress (TUC) of Nigeria have staged a protest at the Federal Ministry of Finance in Abuja, shutting down activities at the premises.
Dressed in red T-shirts, the workers barricaded the ministry’s gate, preventing vehicular movement in and out of the compound.
Addressing journalists at the scene, the Industrial Relations Officer of the Nigerian Nuclear Regulatory Authority Branch,
Patrick Solomon, accused the ministry’s management of ignoring the union’s demands.
“We are here to protest the insensitivity to our requests and demands as a union and as members.
“We had certain challenges, and we have used all avenues to resolve the issues, but there were no listening ears. Our IGR in the office have been withheld for nothing less than 15 months.
