of 2017 May Day, encouraging them to continue to reinforce the virtues
of hard work and excellence in their duties. In

Nigerian workers in spite of daunting challenges, and urged them to
continue to uphold the dignity of labour, adding that they remain the
bedrock of the nation’s economic growth.
“We salute
Nigerian workers on this auspicious occasion and commend them for their
hard work, commitment and resourcefulness which have continued to grow
and sustain the nation’s economy over the years,” Globacom said.
While
wishing the workers a happy May Day celebration, Globacom added that
“the progress that Nigeria has made in different sectors of the economy
over the years is mainly attributable to the contributions of the
country’s workers,” adding that “they remain the pillar on which the
nation’s economy rests firmly.
The company

to build a stronger work culture that will engender a more efficient and
productive work force. The company posited that this will potentially
lead to the entrenchment of due process and world-class labour standards
in the country.
