Railway workers union warns fg against planned concession of nrc
Here is a summary of the article:
The Nigerian Railway Workers Union (NRWU) has warned the Federal Government against the planned concession of the Nigerian Railway Corporation (NRC). The union, in a statement, expressed concern that the concession would lead to job losses and compromise the safety and efficiency of the railway system.
The NRWU argued that the concession would allow private companies to take over the management of the railway system, which would lead to the loss of jobs for railway workers. The union also expressed concern that the concession would compromise the safety and efficiency of the railway system, as private companies may not have the same level of commitment to the well-being of the railway system as the government.
The NRWU called on the Federal Government to reconsider its plan to concession the NRC and instead focus on improving the railway system through public investment. The union also urged the government to engage with the railway workers and other stakeholders to find a solution that would benefit all parties involved.
The planned concession of the NRC is part of the Federal Government's efforts to privatize the railway system and attract private investment. However, the NRWU and other stakeholders have expressed concerns about the impact of the concession on the railway system and the workers who depend on it.
Overall, the NRWU's warning highlights the concerns of railway workers and other stakeholders about the planned concession of the NRC and the potential impact it could have on the railway system and the workers who depend on it.
