The organised labour in Ekiti State have threatened to embark on strike in the new year if Governor Kayode Fayemi fails to implement the N30,000 minimum wage and the consequential adjustment to workers across the board.
The workers vowed to stage a protest next week, stressing that the only way labour crisis could be averted is for the government to pay all the promotion and salary arrears to all categories of workers.
The labour directed that the agreed new minimum wage and consequential adjustment table should be sustained without any concession.
The workers also want all arrears of promotions for years 2017, 2018 and 2019; arrears of leave bonuses for years 2016, 2017,2018,2019 and 2020 as well as 6 years for Local governments, subvented institutions and four years for State workers salary arrears and deductions should be paid in earnest.
