“Pay Us Or Adeosun Must Go”: Workers Continue Protest At Finance Ministry (Photo)

For the second day running, workers of the ministry of finance continued their protest shutting down all entrances to the headquarters of the ministry over unpaid N1.2bn special overtime allowance.

But, unlike on Monday, when the workers allowed some skeletal services to go on while their protest lasted, business activities were on Tuesday completely paralysed as all the offices in the ministry were shut.

The workers in their hundreds stayed out of their offices from 8am when they resumed work and vowed not to attend to any official assignment until the arrival of the Minister of Finance, Mrs Kemi Adeosun.

They said their agitation would continue until the minister is either removed or their allowances paid.

The protest is still on as of the time of filing this report and the minister had yet to show up at the ministry.

Details later.
