Lifestyle Nigeria gathered that the organised labour in Niger State has given the government 24 hours to commence the refund of monies deducted from civil servants for Contributory Health Care Scheme or face industrial action that would ground the state indefinitely.

The state chairman of the union, Comrade Idris Lafene, gave the ultimatum during a low-key celebration of the 2024 International Workers Day in Minna.

The event held at Justice Legbo Kutigi International Centre instead of the usual 123 Quarters parade ground.

The Contributory Health Care Scheme was introduced by the immediate past governor of the state, Alhaji Abubakar Sani Bello, where two percent of civil servants salary was being deducted.

According to Lafeni: “We woke up today with reports from some of our members that NICARE has started deducting their money. This was not the agreement we had with the Niger State Government.

” We are calling on the state government to refund our monies as well as bring those that masterminded such illegal deductions to book or the programme will never see the light of the day. ”
