Activities at the headquarters of the Public Complaints Commission in Abuja were grounded on Wednesday as protesting workers locked the gates and prevented people from entering the offices.
The action threw the organisation into confusion as the workers, under the aegis of Joint Union of Public Complaints Commission, protested the non-payment of the new national minimum wage and arrears estimated at 17 months.
The JUPCC include the commission’s units of the Parliamentary Staff Association of Nigeria, Association of Senior Civil Servants of Nigeria and the Nigeria Civil Service Union. While accusing government of underfunding the commission, the workers said they would continue to occupy the place until the management pays the money.
