Edo street sweepers protest unpaid eight-month salary arrears
Street sweepers engaged by the Edo State Waste Management Board, under a public-private partnership arrangement, have staged another protest over the non-payment of their outstanding salaries. The protesters, who abandoned their morning duties, lamented that the state government had failed to pay their entitlements spanning seven months.
Armed with placards, the aggrieved workers marched through Kings Square, Akpakpava Road, and made a stopover at the press centre of the Nigerian Union of Journalists before heading for the Government House in Benin. The street sweepers had on November 2 taken to the streets to protest against the non-payment of their seven-month salary arrears.
One of them, Aigbe Jerry, alleged that the affected workers had been disengaged on the excuse that the job had been given to State Employment and Expenditure for Results (SEEFOR), an initiative for empowerment.
