The seventeen lawyers sacked by Akwa Ibom might be recalled before the May 29 handover date, Governor Godswill Akpabio, has assured.
He stated this while responding to questions from labour leaders over the weekend during the Labour Day celebration in Uyo.
Akpabio said the sacked lawyers might be recalled if they withdraw the suits against government first.
The governor agreed on the need to review salaries of workers, stating that what they currently earn was not commensurable with economic realities.
The Senator-elect promised to support salary increment when the 8th National Assembly takes off.
On the alleged punitive transfers of 65 workers at the International Airport, the governor directed the Head of Service, (Mrs.) Cecilia Udoessien, to regularise everything within the next 14 days.
On the workers’ Estate, Akpabio asked the labour leaders to pick up the Certificate of Occupancy on Monday from his office.
The Governor- elect, Udom Emmanuel, promised to implement labour-friendly policies.
He assured pensioners of better deals and improved welfare.
