United Labour Congress of Nigeria (ULC) has commiserated with the wife of the late Chief of Staff to the Presidency, Kulu Abba Kyari, his family, and President Muhammadu Buhari over the death of Kyari.
The union’s president, Joe Ajaero, stated that the official announcement of the passing of the Chief of Staff, Abba Kyari, was received as great shock and a deep sense of loss to not just Mr. President, but to workers and citizens.
He prays God to give the family the fortitude to bear the loss.
In his statIment, he said, “The passing allows us as a nation to reflect especially as we query the circumstances of his death under the cruel hands of the Pandemic – COVID-19.
“In death, Abba Kyari teaches us as a nation to take serious look at the various national infrastructures that we have allowed to become decrepit over the years especially our healthcare delivery system.
“His going to the grave urges us to begin immediately to revamp our health institutions, review and ensure effective health policies, ensure greater access to healthcare for all of our citizens, build capacities of our healthcare personnel and functionally equip our hospitals.
“It teaches us to awaken to the reality of building our nation consciously and deliberately by strengthening every sector of the nation’s social infrastructures and public utilities.”
