They defiled early morning rain and converged on the headquarters of Ondo state Teaching Service Commission (TESCOM), the Governor’s office and the State Assembly complex to seek the state government’s support for their agitation.
Addressing the protesting Non-Academic Staff in Akure, the Ondo state Chairman of the Nigeria Labour Congress, NLC, Comrade Sunday Adeleye-Oluwole represented by the Congress Secretary, Comrade Omokehinde Shado, described as unjust exclusion of Non-Teaching staff in the federal government’s incentive.
