Placard-carrying members of Parliamentary Staff Association of Nigeria (PASAN), yesterday, staged a peaceful protest at the National Assembly over what they described as breach of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with National Assembly management.

The April 13, 2021 agreement, according to the association, was supposed to have resulted in full implementation of the new National Minimum Wage Act 2019 and the Revised Conditions of Service.

He said the Presidential Steering Committee on Wages, chaired by the Minister of Finance, is yet to approve the wage. He said: “Management said the payment would start from January 2020, which is what was stated in the letter from the Salaries and Wages Commission. Management said it will not pay until the board approves the money.

But armed with resolutions of the Joint Congress of PASAN chapters, held on January 6, 2022, signed by Comrade Sunday Sabiyi, Chairman and Comrade A. Liman, Vice Chairman , the workers levelled the following accusations: The letter conveying the resolutions was addressed to the Clerk to the National Assembly, Amos Ojo Olatunde, on January 6, 2022 and copied to the Senate President; Speaker, House of Representatives; and Executive Chairman, NASC, among others.
