Peters Adeyemi, during a press conference on the activities
marking May Day with theme, ‘The Working Class and the Quest
for Socio-Economic Revival’, on May 1, 2016 to hold at the Eagle

said with the current N18, 000 minimum wage workers in the
country can no longer cope with the biting economic challenges.

search and release of Chibok girls abducted two years ago by Boko
Haram at their school in Chibok Borno State.

Federation. The theme of this year’s Mat Day is, ‘The Working
