Yenagoa—Workers in Bayelsa State, yesterday, called on the state government to improve the welfare of its state’s work force and review of the pension allowances based on N18,000 minimum wage, as the state  celebrated the May Day amidst tight security.

A stop and search was conducted on workers entering the Peace Park, venue of the Workers Day celebration ostensibly to prevent suspected miscreants from infiltrating the place.

The state governor, Mr Seriake Dickson, who made a brief appearance at the celebration, said though workers in the state had done well in the last few years, the success of the current administration in the state was dependent on the shoulder of the state workers.
