May Day: CISLAC backs NLC, TUC’s clamour for living wage
As Nigerian workers joined the rest of the world in celebrating this year’s May Day, the Civil Society Legislature Advocacy Centre (CISLAC) said it actively supports their fight for a minimum wage that reflects the rising cost of living and ensures their ability to support themselves and their families.
The Executive Director of CISLAC, Mr Auwal Ibrahim Rafsanjani, stated this in a statement on Wednesday in Abuja on the occasion to mark International Workers’ Day.
“Additionally, CISLAC prioritises improved working
conditions, particularly within the informal sector, where workers often face exploitation and a lack of basic protections,” he said.
A cording to him, CISLAC will continue to be a vocal champion for Nigerian workers through impactful research, strategic advocacy campaigns, and by providing legal representation for vulnerable workers seeking justice.
“We believe that empowered workers are the cornerstone of a thriving nation,” he said.
Rafsanjani reiterated the organisation’s unwavering commitment to advocating for Nigerian workers’ rights and well-being.
“As the world commemorates International Workers’ Day, the Civil Society Legislative Advocacy Centre (CISLAC) Executive Director, Auwal Ibrahim Musa Rafsanjani, joins the Nigerian people in recognising the immense contributions of Nigerian workers to our nation’s progress.
“The Civil Society Legislative Advocacy Centre (CISLAC), the Nigeria Chapter of Transparency International, extends its heartfelt appreciation to the Nigerian workforce, the bedrock of the nation’s socio-economic progress,” he said.
He noted that this year’s International Workers’ Day found Nigerian workers navigating a complex landscape.
He said CISLAC recognised the ongoing struggle many Nigerian workers face in securing a living wage amidst a
challenging economic climate.
He said the rising cost of living continues to disproportionately impact working families, threatening their ability to meet basic needs.
“However, amidst these challenges, Nigerian workers have consistently demonstrated remarkable resilience and resourcefulness.
“Their unwavering dedication keeps the wheels
of the nation turning, fostering growth and development across all sectors.
“CISLAC applauds the ingenuity and work ethic ingrained in the Nigerian workforce.
“CISLAC recognises the critical role Nigerian workers play in every facet of the nation’s development,” he said
