COMMUNIQUE ISSUED AT THE END OF AN EMERGENCY MEETING  OF CONCERNED WORKERS IN IBADAN ON JUNE 10, 2019.
 
 
Rising from an emergency convergence  of concerned workers,  the Nigerian workers after intensively considering various situations in the country especially as it concerns the horrible spate of massive killings, the unimaginable  pace of suicide , the high level of insecurity all over , the prevailing hopelessness among our people viz-a-viz massive unemployment and poor national economy. The convergence is also worried about the delay in the implementation of the new national minimum wage,the unending social tension , extreme poverty facing the populace   and  poor governance at all levels.
 
The position of the convergence is that Nigeria is at drift and highly endangered,the national situation has shown itself to be a disaster and Nigerians  are  being  wasted endlessly,  with no hope for a  reprieve .  Governance is at its lowest ebb and the country is moving like a sheep without a shepherd. 
 
Painfully, the response from the masses have been very nauseating  ,the  people have continued to show lack of  sufficient social response in the prevailing circumstances. Of worry  is the uninspiring  attitude of labour leaders towards the multifarious challenges bedevilling the country. 
Nigeria 7We the Nigerian workers are therefore disturbed that if nothing urgent is done to correct these anomalies, Nigeria risks imminent collapse.Hence, we the Nigerian workers  resolve as follows that :
 
 
1.  We will no longer  tolerate the mindless massacre going on in Nigeria. 
2.  President Buhari should immediately stop the pace of killings in the country or in the alternative tender his resignation. 
3.Labour movement in Nigeria should lead Nigerians towards a social renewal. 
4.  The Nigerian Labour Congress  (  NLC) , Trade Union Congress (TUC ) and the United Labour Congress  (ULC)  should call workers out for  a  national protest, if  after 14 days ,the killings  continue unabated.
5.   By 30th June 2019, if workers have not received the new national minimum wage, then  Labour should  direct workers to proceed on an indefinite nationwide  strike action. 
6.  Nigerians should be more proactive in developing a culture of protest against societal ills
7.   Nigerians should get ready to take their destiny in their hands as governance in Nigeria has failed.
