The leadership of the Nigeria Labour Congress, NLC and Trade Union Congress, TUC in Ekiti State have vowed to support only governorship candidate that is ready to meet up with the demands of workers and offer cabinet ranking positions to workers.
Chairmen of the two unions, Messrs Kolapo Olatunde and Sola Adigun stated this at a news conference held in Ado Ekiti to herald activities lined up for this year’s May Day.
The union leaders explained that a committee had been set up by both unions to examine the manifestos of all candidates and interview them towards determining whom workers would align with.
They urged workers to obtain their Permanent voter’s cards and be ready to participate actively in the June 18 election.
They promised to continue to put in all efforts to ensure that government and employers improve on the welfare of employees.
Part of activities lined up for the May Day celebration include indoor games, sanitation among others.
