Covid-19 Contractors Protest In Abuja

Contractors that supplied Covid-19 medical equipments have taken to the streets of the Federal Capital territory to protest against the partial payment of money allegedly owed them since three years (from 2019).

The protesters blocked the entrance gate of the FCT Minister, causing gridlock and preventing vehicles from accessing the secretariat.

Some of their placards and banners bore inscriptions such as ‘Dear Minister, put an end to this wickedness, pay COVID-19 contractors, their money is close to three years already’, ‘We are tired of fake promises’, and ‘we need our money now,’ among others.
