“If I’m insisting (on proceeding with the strike), I’m not insisting. I will communicate to you,” he said.
“So, we are supporting our president, and I know that he will get 100 per cent votes in the South-East in 2007,” said the junior labour minister.
The lawmaker alleged that Ms Onyejeocha forged election results in the 2023 National Assembly elections to upturn the outcome of the polls.
According to Ms Onyejeocha, the platform will act as a centralised hub where cases of child labour can be reported instantly.
President Bola Tinubu says social dialogues on labour reforms are necessary for Nigeria’s development.
The minister also said President Bola Tinubu agreed that the national minimum wage review would no longer be done every five years.
According to Ms Onyejeocha, statistics showed 160 million children worldwide, or one in 10, are engaged in child labour.
Stating that the current challenges were surmountable, Mr Tinubu said the government would do its best to overcome them.
