All affiliate unions of the Nigeria Labour Congress in Ekiti State have agreed to participate in next week’s solidarity mass protest organized by the NLC.
The protest is in solidarity with university lecturers, to salvage the education sector in the country.
The various affiliate unions made their commitment known during a meeting held at the labour house in Ado Ekiti to deliberate on how to carry out the protest.
Two of the affiliate unions, JNC Chairman, Mr Kayode Fatomiluyi and NULGE president, Mr Oluseyi Olatunde noted that they have directed all their members to come out enmasse to rescue the future of the younger generation.
They explained that students of Nigeria Universities have overstayed at home, hence the need for government to hear the yearning of the lecturers by fulfilling the agreement made with them.
