The appointment came at the time that the Nigerian Labour Congress (NLC), Sokoto state chapter, decried the delay in the payment of salaries.
NLC also berated Tambuwal-led government over non-remittance of deductions from workers’ salaries to their respective unions and cooperatives.
The union also lamented that the payment of pension and gratuities to retired civil servants remained a challenge in the state.
