Gardnerville – The decision of the government of Liberia to boycott the celebration of this year’s International Labour Day has not gone down well with executives and members of the Liberia Labour Congress. Second, the Ministry of Labor, headed by former Lofa County Representative Moses Kollie, rejected several invitations to attend program commemorating the day. However, members of the Liberia Labor Congress converged on Tuesday, May 1 to celebrate the day alongside other countries around the world. He called on workers to condemn the action of the Liberian government, saying the failure of the Minister of Labour to inform the Foreign Ministry about International Labor Day was a move to undermine the interest of Liberian workers. “We want to use this event to condemn, in the strongest possible term the decision of the Labour Minister to boycott the Labor Day celebration in Liberia,” he said.
