The Nigeria Labour Congress, on Thursday, has shut down the Federal Ministry of Mines and Steel Development in Abuja.
Members of the labour union shut down the ministry for failing to obey a court judgement ordering the reinstatement of a staff member, Comrade Victor Ekpaha, who was reportedly unlawfully sacked 20 years ago.
The workers are demanding full payment of Ekpaha’s salaries, allowances and other benefits for over 20 years that the case had lingered.
