You’re defending real economic saboteurs, NUEE accuses Lai Mohammed-Comrade Joe Ajaero

The National Union of Electricity Employees (NUEE), has accused the Minister of Information, Lai Mohammed, of defending the real economic saboteurs against Nigerians and the working people, saying that the minister is rather engaging Nigerian workers in defence of his cronies.

The General Secretary of NUEE, Comrade Joe Ajaero, said in a statement, on Monday, said that very soon, the minister would fight all Nigerians and their families.

In reaction to the minister’s statement, the NUEE general secretary, said workers in the electricity sector, have read with worry the report attributed to the Minister of information “in which he called us; Economic saboteurs and vowed that the government which he represents, will go after us.”

Ajaero said: “Nigerian workers in the power sector would want to ask the  minister to tell Nigerians whose interests he represents? Is he on the side of Nigeria and Nigerians or on the side of some vested interests, who have hijacked  power sector?

 “Clearly, the minister has shown that he does not speak for the ordinary Nigerians, who he ought to defend as a minister  but has chosen to become a defender of the powers that have remorselessly ganged up against Nigerian workers and masses.

“He never saw anything wrong in the illegal sacking of about 400 workers of the electricity sector just by one Disco; the continued abuse and denigration of workers’ rights and privileges in these companies; of course, Lai was not expected to speak for inconsequential nobodies like Nigerian workers but, he woke up from slumber the moment workers decided to resist the continued impunity.

He told the minister that the real saboteurs are those who refused load allocation from the National Grid for onward distribution to our factories and homes so that they can continue the rip – off; and those that punish Nigerians with estimated billing whether there was electricity supply or not.

 He  said  that the saboteurs also include those that continue subjecting Nigerians to untold darkness without reason and those that increasd tariff every time “with the support of people like Lai Mohammed.”

Ajaero insisted that these are the real socio-economic saboteurs and challenged the minister to go after them as promised.
