The National Union of Electricity Employees (NUEE), has challenged PHCN workers to work ``very hard’’ so as to rake in more cash to sustain the company.
``The Federal Government has stopped funding the PHCN and the challenge is for us (workers) to redouble our efforts and get the money to keep the company afloat,’’ Mr Anthony Sule, NUEE Zonal Organising Secretary (North-East) said in Jos on Wednesday.
Sule was speaking at the inauguration of the union’s caretaker committee to oversee the workers’ affairs in the newly created business units in Jos.
He pointed out that PHCN had been funding itself, and advised the workers to brace up for the challenge by putting in additional efforts.
``As it is now, every worker must work harder for his or her pay. We must jointly encourage each other to put in our best,’’ he said.
The NUEE official dismissed allegations that PHCN staff were working to frustrate the ongoing power reforms.
