Workers of power holding company of Nigeria (PHCN) have expressed concern about their safety and security of family members in the event of government announcement preceding payment of their severance package.
The workers expression comes on the heels of government pronouncement that it would pay about N384 billion, part of their entitlements this June.
They fear it would attract kidnappers, armed robbers and other social miscreants to their domains.
Segun Afolorunso, chairman, Nigeria Union of Electricity Employees (NUEE), Eko Electricity Distribution (Zone chapter), expressed the sentiment at close door session between the workers union and Power Minister in Lagos at the weekend.
He noted that the electricity workers had met with various mishaps following previous government pronouncements on payment of disengagement entitlements. “
