Today is Labor Day in the Philippines, which means it is a public holiday. I think this occasion is also celebrated in other parts of the world.

Nigeria workers have not to celebrate. A hungry man is an angry man. Nigeria workers are bleeding because of poor salary and high cost of living. They should concentrate on issue that border con corruption and insecurity. May 1 is still here with us, why celebrating hunger and insecurity.
