Every year, 1st of May, Kenya marks a  national celebration for workers [LABOUR DAY] Today, 1st of May 2015, Kenya's    Central Organization of Trade Unions (COTU) marks its 50th anniversary
 The union was founded in 1965 upon the dissolution on the Kenya Federation of Labor and the African Workers' Congress. The COTU is affiliated with the International Trade Union Confederation.

We the family of ECN Radio wish COTU and all workers of Kenya a happy and healthy working celebration.
Kenya Is a working nation.
A message from the desk of ECN Radio Coordinator

"Today, I join hands with all Kenyans from all walks of life, in commemorating this very important day in the history of Kenyan Workers. It has been a long journey marked with numerous challenges for our workers in the country. We however, acknowledge the obstacles that have been witnessed in the recent past because they have prepared us for a great destiny ahead.
I wish to thank all the COTU management in the country for the dedication and continued representation of workers in the country..

As  we mark 50 years of COTU let us always remember the core agenda of developing the economy of our country, and the dedication to our duties. Kenya remains as one nation united by our national flag and driven by our constitution. Workers of this country ranging from casual laborers to permanent workers, employees to employers, lower class to high class workers, We must at all times remember that we are one."

Thank you and may God bless Kenya
