The focus of government at all levels is to establish and maintain cordial relationship with its workforce, often regarded as its engine room in terms of implementation of policies and programmes.

Other labour leaders who spoke on the successes recorded in the year under review include Chairman of the Public Service Negotiation Council, Shawulu Tammah and the state President of Traders and Marketers Association, Alhaji Musa Turaki Gamji.
They however used the medium to appeal to the State Government to do more in addressing the challenges confronting workers to enhance productivity.
