The Minister of Labour and Employment, Chris Ngige, says Nigerian workers should be clapping for the Buhari istration because it has done well for them.

Speaking in an interview with Channels TV, Ngige said the Buhari istration has been able to manage the welfare of workers in the country better than other istrations.

“Many people will not very quickly. In the military government, at a time, there was an embargo on employment; even embargo on promotions. When people go, the vacancies are there and the monies are returned to the coffers of the government. We are not doing so and I thought Nigerian workers should be clapping for us for that. We are promoting them (workers) as we speak; we are replacing those who have left. In fact, when people leave on high grades, we do what is called suppression and get more (people) on the lower grades. The Presidency doesn’t want anybody to be laid off; this President.” he said

The Minister went on to say President Buhari is very concerned about the welfare of workers because he was part of them, as a soldier. He said the Buhari istration has recruited 30,000 policemen and thousands of workers into various parastatals of the government.

Who's is fooling who..

Nigerian workers have really suffered in the hands of this government.

Is that why he is wearing 7 rings on that his short fingers?

Everything about Buhari and his government
Is full of lifelessness

Empty head

THE MOST STUPID MINISTER EVER

Your zombie workers should do the clapping. Idiot

Workers should be happy that they were not flogged, kicked and frog jumped by Python dancing soldiers on the orders of our military President Gen. M. Buhari.

We will clap him back to Daura.

NIGERIAN WORKERS DON SUFFER

Suffering and smiling nigerians

Thank God i'm Kanulated to boycott any boycottable

There's always 2 sides to a coin. Buhari's Govt has favoured me and my colleagues so much.. I feel u can't just build on a damaged structure. It's better to pull down d structure and start building from d scratch.. The economy was already nose diving before
this istration came in.

I can exchange rate jumping from around 160 to 225 in few months towards the end of the last istration.. As a former forex trader, I know u can't just change the trend overnight when heading towards a direction.

I believe this country is heading towards a positive direction.

Its not your fault I blame those youths that still this istration.

I clap with my ass daily for this govt

That's what you get when you put a traditional doctor to head your ministry of labour...

Nonsense.

Buhari is a terrorist. Back to Duara.

Are these government officials in touch with reality at all or they are plain wicked?

Clapping for you people abi, " Anu-mpama " . How I wish ministers and politicians are talking the same pay on monthly basis with workers, all this rubbish wouldn't have been lingering this much.

For inflation of goods or for joblessness that abounds in the society, or for what?

Ehen! Even with the millions of jobs that have been lost and casualization of workers by multinationals? Clap for yourself joor, you too much. In fact we will worship YOU.

He is probably blind..... Hence those dark glasses, he cannot see reality..................

And some folks will still vote for these guys to continue governing for four more years

KANUISALIVE:
Suffering and smiling nigerians

Ngige stop showing your foolishness through your comments, your political career is dying day by day. Are you sure that you can win Chancellorship election in you LGA again?

If buhari is a fowl, and you follow buhari, you are nothing different from a foolish fowl. Idiot. Clap for yourself.
