From Aloysius Attah, Onitsha

National Coordinator, All Progressives Grand Alliance ( APGA) Media Warriors Forum, Evang. Chinedu Obigwe, has faulted the recent action of Joe Ajaero, the President of the Nigerian Labour Congress (NLC) towards the Soludo administration in Anambra State and declared that he is being used to play some politically motivated script.

Ajaero had called out Gov. Soludo in a viral video where he alleged that the governor was against other governors who agreed to pay N70, 000 minimum wage.

Last Wednesday too, the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) and Trade Union of Nigeria (TUC) issued a seven-day strike notice to Soludo over his reported refusal to fully implement the 2019 minimum wage policy.

But in reaction to the development, the APGA Media Warriors boss in a statement on Saturday warned Ajaero to try his antics elsewhere, because Anambra workers were happy and comfortable with Soludo.

He( Ajaero) started by fabricating lies against Governor Soludo by claiming in a viral TV video interview that Governor Soludo is harassing Governors that accepted to pay 70 thousand naira minimum wage. This is a lie from the pit of hell.

“The welfare of workers is among the priorities of Governor Soludo’s administration and that is the reason he is enjoying a good relationship with Anambra workers.
