Radio, Television, Theatre, and Arts Workers’ Union of Nigeria (RATTAWU) is seeking for partnership with the Nigeria Television Authority (NTA) to build members’ capacity to ensure enhanced productivity at the workplace.
This was made known by the National President of RATTAWU Comrade Kabir Garba during a courtesy visit to the Director-General of NTA, Mallam Yakubu IBN Mohammed in his office in Abuja.
“As regard capacity building and enhanced productivity, training is a vital tool. A sector such as ours requires regular training and retraining of staff to attune them to the realities of the job. This exercise should always be given top priority.
“This is why the core mandate of RATTAWU is the training of her members in various capacities locally and even internationally through our international affiliates. The union will therefore be willing to partner NTA in this regard for better service delivery”.
On the welfare of members, the RATTAWU boss urged the management of NTA to as a matter of urgency address the issue of nonpayment of relocation allowance to staff as well as parting gifts to retired staff irrespective of grade.
The president further warned against the transfer of union executives within their tenure, adding such practice affects the smooth running of the union activities.
The Director-General of the NTA, Mallam Yakubu IBN Mohammed while speaking urges the union to ensure amicable resolution to the internal wrangling in the union in the interest of peace and stability in the union.
