Workers of Owerri North Local Government have threatened to down tools following the inability of the state government to pay them their part of arrears since last year.

Tension and anxiety took over Owerri North Council headquarters as workers discussed the development in groups and hushed tones.

The leadership of National Union of Local Government Employees, NULGE, had met with the local government Sole Administrator, SOLAD where they expressed their disgust over the non-payment of their entitlements.

Fingers were pointed at the SOLAD who acted during that era including the Treasurer and Director of Administration and Services, DAGs.

After meeting with the SOLAD, the workers assembled where the NULGE leadership informed the workers of the next line of action which involves strike action.

Efforts to reach the SOLAD of Owerri North proved abortive as repeated calls were not picked while a text remains unanswered.
