The Nigeria Labour Congress has insisted that state governors must pay outstanding salaries before the May 29 handover date.
The factional Deputy President of the NLC, Peters Adeyemi, said at the ninth National Delegates conference of the Medical and Health Workers Union of Nigeria in Abuja, that workers had commenced the campaign to prevail on the governors to pay outstanding salaries before May 29.
The National Administrative Council of the NLC had on March 19, 2015 set up a committee to compel state governments to pay over eight months salary arrears owed workers.
The congress had on December 31, 2014 said that 11 states owed workers salaries.
Adeyemi said that workers should not be made to bear the brunt of the mismanagement of the economy as they were not part of those who looted the treasury.
