Workers Day : Rt. Hon. Olumide Osoba appreciate Ogun, Nigerian Workers, celebrate dignity of labor
A member of the House of Representatives representing Abeokuta North/Odeda/Obafemi Owode Federal constituency, Rt. Hon. Olumide Osoba felicitates with Nigerian workers on the occasion of the 2022 workers day.
In a congratulatory message released by his Media office, Hon Olumide joined the rest of the world to celebrate the dignity of labor and to express appreciation for the value of productive work, which is essential for the rapid progress of any society.
“I am pleased to celebrate this occasion with Nigeria, particularly Ogun state public workforce where workers demonstrate their common interests and international solidarity”
“I celebrate with workers in Ogun State and all over the country as we mark the Worker’s Day under the banners of the Nigeria Labor Congress (NLC) and the Trade Union Congress (TUC)”.
“Let me start by commending the labor unions for consistently defending and advancing the political, economic, and social rights of Nigerian workers. Your efforts towards promoting the interests of the Nigerian workers have not gone unnoticed. I commend you for the maturity, sacrifice and patience in the face of the difficulties in the global economic which have affected the welfare of workers across the country”
Today, the challenges that face labor groups in Nigeria are no different from those encountered by their counterparts in other parts of the World. Every worker wants better working hours, better welfare and better pay. Yet the capacity of employers to meet these demands is often limited and frequently non-existent. I, therefore salute workers in the State for having kept faith with our Government despite the downturn of the economy.
“For those of us in the National Assembly, we will continue to come up with laws capable of changing lives and standards befitting a Nigerian worker”. the statement reads.
