Aviation workers are currently protesting in Abuja, the Federal Capital Territory.
The PUNCH reported Sunday that the unions in the aviation sector had directed its members to “embark on peaceful rallies/public demonstrations at all airports in Nigeria to demand the expunging of obnoxious Essential Services clauses from the Bills/Acts of the aviation agencies” on Monday.
At the Abuja protest, the workers held banners and placards, some of which read, “Buhari, don’t assent to anti-union aviation bills/acts,” Our voice must be heard,” among others.
The nationwide protest is convened under the banners of the National Union of Air Transport Employees; Air Transport Services Senior Staff Association of Nigeria; Association of Nigerian Association Professionals; Amalgamated Unions of Public Corporations; Civil Service Technical & Recreational Services Employees, and the National Association of Aircraft Pilots and Engineers.
