The Nigeria Labour Congress(NLC) has threatened a nationwide strike if the Federal Government fails to return workers’ insurance contributions.
The NLC accused the Federal Government of syphoning 40 per cent of contributions from the Nigeria Social Insurance Trust Fund into the national treasury.
NLC also demanded that the government fill the leadership gap in the country’s pension regulatory commission within a week.
However, the National Pension Commission has denied claims of missing funds, saying that the Contributory Pension Scheme remains secure and continues to grow.
