Workers’ Day: Kaduna PDP seeks probe of 27, 000 workers sacked under El-Rufai

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Kaduna State chapter, has urged the Committee set up by the Kaduna State House of Assembly to investigate the expenditure of the past administration of Nasir El-Rufai to beam its searchlight on the ‘unjust’ sacking of over 27,000 workers across the state without payment of their entitlements.

In a statement by Abraham Alberah Catoh, the State Publicity Secretary, PDP rejected what it termed ‘bastardization’ of civil service in the state

Catoh felicitated with Kaduna workers on the occasion of the 2024 Workers’ Day and expressed the party’s solidarity with them and the entire country workers for their resilience and commitment.

According to the statement, “We wish to call on the Committee set up by the Kaduna State House of Assembly to investigate the expenditure of the past administration of Nasir El-Rufai to, also beam its search lights on the unjust sacking of over 27,000 workers across the state without payment of their entitlements and also the bastardization of the civil service in the state.

“The PDP reiterates its commitment to supporting good governance at all levels and government’s efforts in reducing the pains and plight of all workers, including the private sector, as they are the bedrock of the entire governance structure and economic development. We wish the Nigerian workers a Happy May Day celebration.”
