<p><a target="_blank" href="http://gistreel.com/tag/Workers"><strong>Workers</strong></a> at the ongoing construction site of the <strong>Rivers State House of Assembly</strong> have reportedly halted work over low wages, demanding an increment above the â¦4,000 daily pay.</p>
<p>This was revealed in a video shared on X (formerly Twitter) by user @ChuksEricE, which showed several workers gathered outside the assembly complex, refusing to resume work until they speak directly with the engineers.</p>
<p>In the video, the workers were seen protesting and chanting, insisting they wouldn’t continue with the construction until their demands were met.</p>
<p>According to the post, the engineers allegedly declined to meet the workers and instead sent a representative — a move the workers rejected.</p>
<p>The voice behind the camera explained the situation: <em>“They’re protesting. They said they’re not working because of the low wages. They’re being paid â¦4,000 daily for the project. The engineers are not responding. House of Assembly, Rivers State, Port Harcourt.”</em></p>
<p>He added, <em>“Workers say they’re not working. They’re tired.”</em></p>
<p>As the clip circulated online, it drew numerous reactions from concerned individuals who stormed the comment section to air their views.</p>

<p><strong>@Tobechukwu9058:</strong><em> “4K by 30 days is 120k … what are they protesting for again.”</em></p>
<p><strong>@Famozy2: </strong><em>“4k for labour or what?”</em></p>
