The Trade Union Congress of Nigeria, Kaduna State Council has said it is not opposed to the genuine verification exercise of the state Civil
Servants to rid the government pay roll of ghost workers.
The Chairman, Comrade Shehu Mohammed while addressing a press conference in kaduna yesterday said the Congress is in total support of any move that will ensure the free flow of money illegal accounts to the government treasury for speedy development of the state.
The Union however appealed to the Governor consider the payment of July 2015 salaries and wages of those civil servants of the state that were cleared in June while the second round of the verification exercise in the state continue.
“The Union is of the opinion that delaying payments of worker’ salaries and wages amounts to tremendous hardship to the workers and their families.
“We considers the outcome of the meeting between the committee of verification exercise and the leadership of the union along side with banks that were to handle the exercise and we discovered that some of them are not ready.
“In as much as the union remains committed in supporting the government in carrying out its obligatory to the people of Kaduna State it would not be seen as shaking away from its responsibilities to protect the economic well being of its members in the state,” Comrade Mohammed stated
