The Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) has urged the Federal Government to stop the killings in Southern Kaduna.
NLC President Mr Ayuba Wabba made the appeal in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Abuja on Tuesday.
Wabba described the situation in Southern Kaduna as “unfortunate’’ and “something that is of concern’’.
He said: “It is really (an) unfortunate situation and clearly it demonstrates the fact that good governance is not in place, because for us organised labour, it is something that is of concern.
“The issue of southern Kaduna was actually addressed at a point in time.
“There was a particular administration that was able to find a solution around this issue and suddenly peace actually returned to that part of Nigeria.
“But this issue is resurfacing, which means we are not actually getting it right.
“Therefore, it is high time those gladiators did things that will be in the interest of the citizens.
“Whatever argument is playing out now would not actually address the issue until our leaders take full responsibility to be able to fix and address the issue and anything short of that is failure.
“Governance is about responsibility; the primary purpose of governance anywhere in the world is security, peace of the people.’’ (NAN)
