Aviation unions besiege Aero Contractors over workers’ suspension

Aviation unions on Thursday besieged the head office of Aero Contractors Airline at the Murtala Muhammed Airport, Lagos in protest against the indefinite leave given to over 1,400 workers.

The action is coming against the background of the suspension of flight operations which the airline announced would commence on Thursday.

The President, Air Traffic Services Senior Staff Association, Mr Benjamin Okewu, told newsmen on Thursday that the unions embarked on the measure following the indefinite leave given to the over 1,400 workers.

The other union whose members also stormed the headquarters of Aero Contractors is the National Union of Air Transport Employees.

The management of Aero Contractors had in a statement issued on Wednesday in Lagos, announced that the airline would commence indefinite suspension of scheduled flight operations from September 1.

According to the statement, the suspension is part of the strategic business realignment to reposition the airline and return it to the path of profitability.

The management stated that the decision was due to the current economic situation in Nigeria, which had forced some other airlines to suspend operations or outrightly pull out of Nigeria.

More is still coming. Very soon all the aviation companies will shut down operation. People will resort to travelling by road; then armed robbers will be having a swell time robbing commuters and will you blame them? No, there's hunger. My Dad of blessed memory told me how ordinary bread of 10k skyrocked to 70k during Buhari era in 1984. I warned them the refused to listen. This is just the beginning. I have acquired 10 plots of land solely for cassava production.Sixteen years of PDP we have never had it so bad like this. Families are struggling to feed, people are sacked everyday. Go to bet9ja shops, is like market these days. Is as a result of failed government. Change my foot

The unions are not serious, they want to be receiving salary without getting any reasonable income.
