Governor Nasir El-Rufai of Kaduna State has warned civil servants against embarking on industrial action over the ongoing workers verification exercise.
He warned that workers who fail to get verified risk being removed from the government's payroll.
In a statement issued by his media aide, Samuel Aruwan, the governor said that the verification exercise is a legitimate attempt by government to update its personnel records and is therefore compulsory.
“Cooperation with the employer to verify the status of every worker is expected. It cannot be made a reason for industrial action.
“Refusal to participate in verification will result in the concerned persons being removed from the payroll.
“The labour leadership seems to be afraid that workers will opt-out of joining unions.
“If that be the case, the unions should seek ways to increase their attraction to workers, including persuading them to opt for continued membership.
“Inciting workers against a legitimate process of updating their personnel records is counter-productive,” the statement said.
