Former minister of Labour and Employment, Senator Chris Ngige, has urged the organised labour to exercise patience while sticking to social dialogue as the surest key to equable industry peace necessary to optimise national production.
In a statement in Abuja by Senator Ngige Media Office, the former Anambra governor said the time was challenging to all Nigerians especially workers who receive fixed salaries even in the face of run away prices of goods and services, arguing that more patriotism was needed from the tripartite community to tackle the dwindling economic fortune.
“This period thus needs a lot of patience and sticking to due process in line with the ILO principles of dialogue, bilaterally and in some cases tripartite dialogue or even Tripartite plus to achieve the needed industrial peace and enhance productivity in the workplace and thereby boost the Nigerian Economy .
“I further wish the organised labour a fruitful tripartite plus Minimum Wage negotiation that’s still ongoing and a very successful May Day.”
