Beneficiaries of the Youth Employment Agency (Y.EA) has threatened its authorities to embark on a strike action on Friday if their close to 5 months allowances are not paid to them within this week.
Read full statement;
We the YEA Beneficiaries across the country to embark on nationwide strike,if government fails to pay our allowances for five months now,with the aim of auditing the payroll system of YEA.
This has affected the activities of most of the beneficiaries.As the Agency is aware,most of the beneficiaries are working in the rural areas and due to the nonpayment of the allowances,they are stranded at their working areas.Also,not forgetting those in the urban areas too,they are also in this same situation.
We the Beneficiaries of YEA across the country want to state it clear to the government,and the directors of Agency that,if they FAIL to pay us our allowances and the areas owned us within 13th and 16th
June,2017,we are going to withdraw our services until our demands are fulfilled.
Thank you
