as the workers were attacked and shot at by suspected thugs on a street leading to Ngige’s house in Abuja.
But in a statement issued by the minister’s Special Assistant, Nwachukwu Obidiwe, Ngige denied engaging thugs to attack the protesters. He said the private residence of the minister was invaded by the NLC, adding that the gate of the house was barricaded with two trucks. NLC president, Ayuba Wabba, said the protest was carried out to express workers’ grievance over Ngige’s failure to inaugurate the board of National Social Insurance Trust Fund with Frank Kokori as chairman. He said it was fundamental right of workers to carry out picketing.
