  "summary": "The leadership of organised labour in Taraba State has urged workers to direct their grievances through their respective affiliate unions before approaching the state councils of the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) or the Trade Union Congress (TUC). This appeal was made by the state chairman of the NLC, Peter Jediel, who emphasized the importance of following established labour structures to address workers’ complaints and grievances effectively. Jediel also highlighted the state government’s efforts to improve workers’ welfare, including the approval of a N70,000 minimum wage, commitments to pay outstanding gratuities, and measures to enhance employee welfare across various sectors. He stressed the need for cooperation between the government and organised labour to consolidate achievements and lay a solid foundation for Taraba State’s future development.",
