Local Govt Female Staff Protest Non-Payment Of 13months Salary By Lying down On Major Road

A woman took her agitation to another level during a protest this morning by staff of Makurdi local government area of Benue state. The staff were protesting against the non-payment of their 13 months salaries.

One of the employees decided to lay in the middle of the road – temporarily stopping vehicles from moving as the security men and others looked on.

When interviewed some of the protesters said they have been removed from the payroll for no genuine reason and called for help from the government as some of their colleagues have died already while some are battling with high blood pressure and related sicknesses.
