NLC Reaches Consensus As Wabba Bows Out As President

There are strong indications that the Nigeria Labour Congress has settled for a consensus candidate to succeed Comrade Ayuba Wabba who is leaving office as president of the body.

Wabba who has served out two terms of four years each became NLC President in 2015 after an election that was marred with controversies.

To this end the 13th Quadrennial National Delegates Conference of the union has been fixed for Tuesday, February 7, 2023, at the International Conference Centre Abuja.

There are indications that the National Administrative Council of the NLC may have settled for Ajaero to succeed Wabba.

The theme for the 13th Quadrennial National Delegates Conference is “Building Peoples’ Power, National Unity and Quest for a New Social Contract”.

The event which sometimes become a rallying point for political office seekers to sell their mandate is expected to attract local and foreign dignitaries, including the former NLC President, Adams Oshiomhole.
