Workers of the Power Holding Company of Nigeria have threatened to go on strike over the non-payment of severance benefits to about 55 per cent of the workforce.
Over 2,000 workers under the aegis of the National Union of Electrical Employees staged a protest at the Eko and Ikeja Electricity Distribution Companies on Monday in Lagos over the delay in the payment of their severance benefits.
The workers, who locked the gates to the distribution companies and prevented people from entering the premises, lamented that most banks had refused to give financial backing to the schedule sent to them by the Federal Government, hence the delay in the payment of the benefits to the majority of them.
