The Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) conference holding on Wednesday, Febraury 11, was disrupted as a fight ensued as a result of issues pertaining to the N2.6 billion failed housing project of the NLC and Kriston-Lally. It got so bad that the delegates started throwing chairs at one another as disagreement deepened on the failure of the NLC leadership to reveal all in the financial report submitted to the conference in session.
Earlier yesterday morning, it was gathered that the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, (EFCC), had invited the out-going president, Abdulwahed Omar, over the botched deal.
The rowdy session which saw Omar inviting the police, to come in and control the situation was the first time in the 37 years history of the NLC that delegates engaged one another physically.
News of the scam which was broken last year, was raised by a delegate from National Union of Electricity, NUEE, who queried why it was not mentioned in the financial report presented to the Congress in Session.
