Rivers State Governor,  Mr. Chibuike Amaechi, has called on the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) and the Trade Union Congress (TUC) to close ranks against inequality and violence in the country.
He said there had been no successful administration in Nigeria without the support of the labour unions actively participating in governance.
 
Amaechi, in his speech at the  Workers' Day celebration in Port Harcourt yesterday, explained that social injustice, political and economic violence as well as corruption were the factors driving  the activities of Boko Haram sect.
 
The governor further charged the labour unions to rise up to their civic responsibilities against the activities of desperate politicians and offer workable solutions that will make the current democracy grow and beneficial to Nigerians.
 
Earlier, the state NLC Chairman, Mr. Chris Oruge,  advocated equal rights and justice, saying  inconsistent polices of government and increasing unemployment were responsible for the insurgency in the North-east  as well as kidnapping and cultism in the south.
