NCPC Faces Lawsuit From Former Employee Over N12m Compensation Claim....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶
Charlene Makai, a former officer at the Nigerian Christian Pilgrims Commission (NCPC), has taken legal action against her former employer at the National Industrial Court in Abuja. Makai alleges unfair treatment, harassment, and salary withholding leading to her resignation.
In Suit No: NICN/ABJ/136/2024, Makai, represented by Ajibola Bello from Law Corridor, accuses NCPC of not paying her salary and allowances, despite her promotion to Chief Administrative Officer. Following her redeployment to the South-East zone under a lower-ranked officer, Makai claims she faced administrative hurdles and unpaid entitlements.
Makai further states that despite a job offer from Senator Diket Plang, seeking NCPC’s approval for her secondment, the Executive Secretary cited an ongoing investigation by the EFCC, preventing her release.
Seeking redress, Makai demands N12 million in compensation, including unpaid salaries, allowances, and damages for constructive dismissal and unfair labor practices. The court has initiated proceedings by serving NCPC the notice of the lawsuit.
