FG Warns NLC, TUC: Stop Interfering in Labour Party Affairs

NLC, TUC

 

The Federal Government has warned the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) and the Trade Union Congress (TUC) to stop meddling in the internal affairs of the Labour Party, citing a breach of the Trade Unions Act.

The warning follows the NLC’s refusal to recognize Barrister Julius Abure as the Labour Party’s chairman, with the NLC’s National Transition Committee issuing conflicting directives to party members.

“It is noteworthy that Abure had reached out to the Ministry of Labour and Employment on July 10, 2024, requesting clarification regarding the NLC’s role,” the Ministry said in a statement.

The Ministry cited Section 15 (1) (2) (3) of the Trade Unions Act, which restricts the use of trade union dues for political purposes unless explicitly allowed by the union’s regulations.

The letter from the Ministry, signed by the Director/Registrar of Trade Unions, Falonipe Amos, stressed that any breach of the Trade Unions Act is considered an offense.
