NLC in Akwa Ibom Threatens Shut down from December 4

The Akwa Ibom State Council of the Nigeria Labour Congress – NLC has threatened to embark on an indefinite strike from Wednesday, December 4, 2024 if the new Minimum Wage agreement that will state the effective date of the implementation is not signed by midnight of Tuesday.

The decision formed the resolutions reached during an emergency State Executive Council Meeting of NLC held yesterday in Uyo.

As contained in a Communiqué signed by the state Chairman of NLC – Comrade SUNNY JAMES, the workers urged Governor UMO ENO to direct the signing of the agreement, while the workers verification exercise is ongoing.

NLC explained that they are extending the action, which was scheduled to commence on Sunday, December 1, by three days because of the burial of the first lady.

The Labour Union noted that workers will also be directed to come out en mass to the Government House gate at wellington Bassey way Uyo, on Monday, December 9, to massively protest for their new minimum wage payment.

Kemi Badenoch Knocks Labour for Withdrawing Discrimination Case by Rap Group

Conservative Party leader KEMI BADENOCH has said it is unbelievable that the Labour government have decided to no longer contest a discrimination case brought by Belfast rap group Kneecap.

The group won its case against the UK government over a decision BADENOCH took when she was a minister to withdraw an arts grant.

The group was awarded 14,250 pounds, the same amount they were initially granted.

A government spokesperson said the decision was made not to continue contesting the band’s challenge as they do not believe it is in the public interest. But BADENOCH described the move as yet another cowardly decision after giving away the Chagos Islands.

Nigeria’s Flag Flies High at FIFA Best 2024 Nominations

The Nigerian quartet of ADEMOLA LOOKMAN, WILLIAM TROOST-EKONG, ASISAT OSHOALA, and PAUL ONUACHU has been shortlisted in various categories of the FIFA Best Awards for 2024.

A list released yesterday by the World Football governing body shows that LOOKMAN, who plays for Atalanta in the Italian Serie A, was nominated in the Best Attacker category. He will battle it out with the impressive VINICIUS JUNIOR, LAMINE YAMAL, BUKAYO SAKA, ERLING HAALAND, LIONEL MESSI, and CRISTIANO RONALDO among other high-profile players.

Nigeria’s stand-in captain TROOST-EKONG was named in the Best Defender category alongside Arsenal’s WILLIAM SALIBA, MANUEL AKANJI, ANTONIO RÜDIGER, DANI CARVAJAL, and others.

OSHOALA, who has won the CAF Women’s Player of the Year crown for a record number of times, was listed in the newly-introduced Marta Award. The prize is for the best goal in women’s football.

Her compatriot and Southampton forward ONUACHU earned a place for the male version – the Puskas. His deft flick in Trabzonspor’s 2-1 win over Konyaspor on November 10, 2023, was enough to put him in contention for the best goal gong in men’s football.
