Member All Progressives Congress APC National Working Committee NWC Hon. Murtala Yakubu Ajaka commemorates with workers today 1st May, 2023 on International Workers’ Day celebration, especially Kogi workers who have endured the most of excesses from maladministration, loss of lives and lack of salaries.
Hon. Ajaka in a message released today said despite the trying times in the country and our dear state occasioned by the incessant cases of non payment of salaries and arrears, death of workers, insecurity and other economic challenges, said there is much to remember about the sacrifices made by Kogi workers to remain committed hoping for a better day.
Hon. Ajaka appreciates all the workers at all levels both in the private and public sector for their commitment and dedication to work over the years, which he said has kept our dear Confluence State surviving.
Ajaka said; “I want to salute your dedication and patriotic services over the years for always giving your best to your work irrespective of the challenges that abound, in the course of this, we have lost valuable colleagues due to lack of salaries and arrears, lost our children due to lack of funds for basic amenities but you have kept hope that better days and better leaders with human sympathy will head the affairs of our dear state one day. That time has come and we will keep our fingers crossed as we see how things unfold in the coming days but never give up on praying for a better Kogi”
While wishing workers a spirit filled celebration, he charged them to be proud of their work, called for more dedication and patriotism saying the challenges of the moment will soon be over.
Indeed, myself, the state and Nigerians are proud of you. Activities of workers have added value socially and economically with the hope that we will continue to sustain this commitment. Ajaka stated.
