This morning, I stopped by AP Filling Station in Maitama, opposite Transcorp, to fuel my car. To my surprise, I noticed the fuel attendants murmuring, so I decided to engage one of them since there werenโt many cars around. I asked what was going on, and the lady told me they had just protested to the management for a salary increase, but their request was rejected.
I gently asked how much they earn monthly, and to my shock, she said theyโre paid โฆ10,000 per month. I asked if she meant โฆ100,000, but she insisted it was โฆ10,000. She even called one of her colleagues, and when I asked her, she confirmed it.
Where is the Nigerian Labour Congress when you need them? This is exactly the kind of issue people likes of @sowore, @adeyanjudeji etc should be fighting for, instead of focusing solely on the presidency. Nigerians arenโt even fair to each other.
How do they expect these workers to transport themselves, feed their families, and not be tempted to steal from customers? A big station like Androva Petroleum shouldnโt be paying staff such a disgracefully low salary.
I hope they act fast. I feel genuinely sad for them and pray they get justice as soon as possible.
