During his farewell speech while commissioning a guest house project, named after Comrade Hassan Sunmonu, the foremost President of the NLC, Wabba said “unionism was not only about contestations and agitations but also, resource management and investment”
In his own submission, the Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Boss Mustapha, noted that President Muhammadu Buhari-led administration was committed to improving the minimum wage of workers to boost productivity.
Mustapha, the special guest of honour at the conference, said the federal government was concerned about improving the welfare of public service, noting that the edifice was a delight for the NLC as well as its workers.
All the noticeable achievements and legacies, Mustapha noted, are for the Nigerian masses, even as he lauded the ex-NLC President, Wabba for constructing such edifice that would yield additional income to the Congress.
