Ministerial screening: NLC blows hot, moves against Ngige

The Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) Monday, opposed the appointment of former governor of Anambra state, Dr Chris Ngige, by President Muhammadu Buhari as one of his minister.

The Labour force said there would be a crisis if Ngige is returned as Minister of labour.

Secretary of NLC, Peter Ozo-Eson, asked Buhari to give Ngige a new portfolio in the next cabinet, saying that Ngige is unfit to handle the post.

He said, “We think that government will be looking for problem if Ngige is returned to the Ministry of Labour and Productivity as a minister, because he does not understand how the place works and his own approach will create an unnecessary industrial crisis.

“If the government is properly advised, it should look for where to put him. Ngige is a square peg in a round hole in the ministry.”
