Lagos State Governor, Babatunde Fashola, has raised concerns over the ongoing crisis in the labour unions, which eventually broke the body into different factions.

The governor called on the need for workers to adopt concerted approach to labour relations in the country.

Fashola spoke during an event to mark the 2015 Workers’ Day at the Onikan Stadium, Lagos.

According to him, collective force by the Nigerian workers would further strengthen the unions to achieve their objectives.

He said, “A divided labour is a fragile labour. The new government coming in from the state and the national levels needs a united and strong labour, not a divided labour force that cannot deliver on its aspiration.

“Whatever it takes, all of you, the leaders must reach out and compromise and you must have one united labour.

“So perhaps instead of standing in the sun every year, we can use all these money for fez caps and other beautiful things and hire a hall and have a one day workshop on how to solve the problems in Nigeria.

“Whether it is housing, power, education, let us have a debate championed by labour for a whole day. Let us change the str Lagos State Governor, Babatunde Fashola, has raised concerns over the ongoing crisis in the labour unions, which eventually broke the body into difference factions.
