Senate President Godswill Akpabio and First Lady Remi Tinubu have joined other prominent Nigerians in praising workers during the 2025 May Day celebrations.
Workers’ Day, which is celebrated on May 1 in Nigeria, is to highlight the contributions of workers to the development of the nation.
In separate messages to mark the day, Akpabio and Remi Tinubu hailed the contributions of Nigerian workers to the growth and stability of the nation.
Akpabio, in a statement through his Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Eseme Eyiboh, noted the hard work and dedication of the Nigerian workers.
“Today, we celebrate the hard work and dedication of Nigerian workers. We, in the Senate and of course, the National Assembly, acknowledge your invaluable contributions to our nation’s development,” he said in a statement late Wednesday.
“I applaud your resilience amid adversity and acknowledge your crucial role in advancing our economy. In spite of the evident challenges, you continue to stand as the backbone of our nation. I deeply appreciate your steadfast dedication to excellence and productivity—your efforts are essential to our country’s development.” AKPABIO.
He assured that: “Under our eyes, no Nigerian worker will be victimised on account of expressing himself or herself either in demanding their rights or seeking legal redress.
“I must say that Nigerian workers are our pride, and we will not shirk our responsibility working together with the Executive to address workers’ concerns and create opportunities for growth and prosperity. Together, we shall build a brighter future for Nigerian workers and our great nation,” Akpabio said.
