Nigeria Labour Congress in Yobe State has called on the state government to shun all forms of political victimization of civil servants in the state.
The event took place at the State NUT House, along Gashua Road, amidst tight security.
The state’s chairman of the NLC, Comrade Lawan M. Ibrahim, said the civil servants must exercise their franchise in every democratic process and their participation should not be viewed as being partisan to any political party.
“Congress wishes to echo loudly for government to shun political victimization of civil servants who were accused before and during election of partisanship,” Lawan said.
He also dismissed reports that some local government workers have been sacked for voting the opposition party in the last general election.
