Imo govt sacks 1,400 LG workers – NULGE

One thousand and four hundred local governments
workers in Imo were sacked last week, according
to the state's chapter of the Nigeria Union of Local
Government Employees.

The chairman, Mr Ndubuisi Uchehara, while
confirming the sack on Thursday in Owerri,
declared, however, that the union would not
confront the state government over it.

He expressed optimism that people with proven
cases of injustice would have their situations
addressed.

The sack hit workers from across the 27 Local
Government Areas of the state.
