The main entrance of the National Assembly complex has been
shut down as disengaged staffs of National Identity Management Commission
protest their sack from the service.
Spokesman of the Protesters Useh Fidelis said "about
4000 staff of the commission were laid off without due process."
According to Fidelis, the aggrieved staffs have made several
representations to the National Assembly without fruitful results.
The protesting ex-workers are demanding reinstatement to the
service while some are asking for their full benefits.
Meanwhile the two chambers of the National Assembly, the
senate and the House of Representatives resumed their plenary session, though
the Lawmakers have to use alternative entrance behind the National Assembly to
enter into the complex.
The National Identity Management Commission (NIMC) was established
by the federal government in 2007 to manage the National Identity Database and
to assign a Unique National
Identification Number and issue General Multi-Purpose Cards
to registered individuals.
