Kaduna State Governor, Mallam Nasir El Rufai, has declared the president of the Nigerian Labour Congress (NLC), Ayuba Wabba, a wanted man.
Governor, Mallam Nasir El Rufai made the declaration on Tuesday on Twitter. They were declared wanted for economic sabotage and attacks on public infrastructure under Miscellaneous Offences Act.
El-Rufai, in a tweet on Tuesday, wrote “Ayuba Wabba & others of @NLCHeadquarters declared wanted for economic sabotage & attacks on public infrastructure under Miscellaneous Offences Act. Anyone who knows where he is hiding should send a message to @MOJKaduna. KDSG. There will be a handsome reward!”
In another tweet, he said: “…the reform of the size, cost & quality of overbloated, inefficient & barely educated public service is at stake here. We will neither retreat nor concede to any thoughtless & corrupt political hacks ever!”
The state government had said the five-day warning strike by the NLC, which began on Monday, will not distract it from its plan to ‘rightsize’ the civil service.
But Wabba, who addressed civil servants in the state on Monday, vowed to bring the El-Rufai administration to its knees until the sacked workers are recalled.
