The management of the Nigerian Ports Authority (NPA) has said the support of the Maritime Workers Union of Nigeria (MWUN) was critical to securing approval for salary increments for its workers, which has stagnated since 2008.
Managing Director of NPA, Mohammed Bello Koko, said this when he received a letter referenced MWUN/MD/NPA/RFC/23 dated March 6, 2023 signed by the Secretary-General, MWUN, expressing appreciation for the salary increment of its members.
“Breaking the jinx of salary stagnation suffered for over a decade by the Authority’s employees was made possible with the support of the MWUN, and we remain appreciative, Bello Koko enthused,” adding that “this critical support from MWUN has buoyed us to intensify our relentless drive towards continuous improvement in the welfare of our esteemed workers in ways not limited to monthly salary alone.
“We are further delighted by the fact that our own Comrade Adewale Adeyanju is now the Deputy President of the NLC, and this gives us the necessary solidarity and backing to push for more benefits for our highly valued human resources.”
Koko, accompanied by the President General MWUN, Comrade Adewale Adeyanju, paid an advocacy visit to the headquarters of the NLC to solicit solidarity towards an increase in NPA workers’ salaries.(agency report)/SHARE THIS
