The Trade Union Congress (TUC) has elected Mr. Quadri Olaleye as its new National President to replace Mr. Bobboi Kaigama. By its constitution, Olaleye will head a 14-member National Administrative Council (NAC) of the union, elected to pilot the affairs of the Labour Centre for the next three years. Olaleye of the Food, Beverage and Tobacco Senior Staff Association (FOBTOB), emerged after a consensus was reached at the end of the 11th Triennial Delegates Conference in Abuja. The former PENGASSAN President, Olabode Johnson was expected to emerge president General of the TUC, but his sudden demise on May 31 at the Abuja National Hospital quashed the hope. Others are; Muhammed Yunusa of Senior Staff Association of Statutory Corporations, Government Owned Companies (SSASSCGOC) as National Treasurer; Isaac Egbugara of Construction and Civil Engineering Senior Staff Association, CCESSA, as Financial Secretary, among others.
