The party said a Peter Obi presidency would give Nigerians a welfare government that will afford workers the privilege to sit on the table with their employers and negotiate wage, working conditions and workers welfare.
The acting national publicity secretary of the Labour Party, Obiora Ifoh, in a statement felicitating with Nigerian workers on the May Day celebration, assured the party will not rest on its oars until it recovers its stolen mandate and repositions the country for greatness and effective service delivery.
The statement reads “The Labour Party leadership wants to use this May Day occasion to felicitate with Nigerian workers for holding on till today. We also want to use this opportunity to appreciate all the workers and all the Progressive elements in the country for supporting our Presidential Candidate, HE Peter Obi and the Labour Party to win the presidential election even though the mandate was stolen. We want to appreciate the workers profusely for this massive support. All these feat would not have been possible were it not because of the support of Nigerian workers and the Nigerian people.
