TY Buratai Humanity Care Foundation celebrates international workers’ day: A call for unity and commitment to national development

The TY Buratai Humanity Care Foundation has extended its warmest regards to the nation’s labour force, recognizing their invaluable contributions to society. Every year on May 1, communities across the globe honor the dedication and resilience of workers, and this year’s celebration in Nigeria carries significant weight as it reflects both gratitude and the pressing challenges faced by the labor force.

 

In a statement released to the press, the Chairman of the Foundation, Ibrahim Dahiru Danfulani Sadaukin Garkuwan Keffi/Betara Biu, emphasized the importance of this day as a reminder of the ongoing struggles for better working conditions, equitable wages, and social justice. “International Workers’ Day serves as a platform for workers to unite, celebrate their achievements, and advocate for improvements in labour rights and welfare,” he stated.

 

The Grand Patron of the Foundation, His Excellency Amb Lt Gen Tukur Yusufu Buratai CFR (Rtd), former Chief of Army Staff, joined millions of workers across the nation in this year’s celebrations. He urged the workforce to remain steadfast in their duties, emphasizing that their commitment is crucial for the love of the country. “It is imperative to acknowledge the current challenges we face, but I am confident in our collective ability to overcome them,” Gen Buratai remarked.

 

Highlighting the pivotal role of workers in national development, Gen Buratai described their dedication as the backbone of progress and a beacon of hope for a brighter future. He also commended the efforts of President Bola Tinubu’s administration in implementing workers’ reforms aimed at enhancing the welfare of the labour force. However, the Grand Patron of the Foundation has made a special appeal to the Federal Government of Nigeria to still review upward the minimum wage of the country’s workers in 2025. From the foundation’s findings, workers at both federal and state levels can not afford their families’ medical bills and other essential sundry expenses. In the spirit of the renewed hope agenda of President Bola Tinubu GCFR and that of the APC, an increase in minimum wage for all workers in the country will rekindle their hopes.

 

The TY Buratai Humanity Care Foundation remains steadfast in its mission to support and uplift the vulnerable and marginalized in society. Through various humanitarian initiatives, the foundation seeks to address pressing social issues, promote education, and provide essential services to those in need. The foundation’s commitment to humanity underscores the belief that every individual deserves dignity, respect, and opportunities for a better life.

 

As Nigeria commemorates International Workers’ Day, the TY Buratai Humanity Care Foundation stands in solidarity with workers, advocating for their rights and welfare while celebrating their significant contributions to national development. The foundation calls on all stakeholders to come together in unity, ensuring that the voices of workers are heard and their needs addressed.
