Шаблон:Short description The Agricultural and Allied Workers' Union of Nigeria (AAWUN) was a trade union representing workers in the agricultural sector in Nigeria.
The union was established in 1978, when the Nigeria government merged various existing unions:[1]
- Aba Livestock Workers' Union
- Finch and Company (West Africa Limited) Workers' Union
- Ibru Group of Companies Workers' Union of Nigeria
- Ijebu Remo Rubber Plantation Workers' Union
- Ilushin Rubber Estate Workers' Union
- Ilutitun Osoro Oil Palm Estate Workers' Union
- Mid-West Timber Industries Workers' Union
- Mitchell Farms African Workers' Union of Nigeria
- Nigeria Timber Industries Workers' Union
- Nigerian Union of Farm, Plantation, Agricultural and Allied Workers
- Nigerian Union of Sea Fishermen
- Obelawo Farcha Fishing Industry Workers' Union
- Oke-Afa Farms Limited and E. O. Ashamu Group of Companies Workers' Union
- Pest Control Staff Union
- Union of Agricultural Workers of Nigeria
- Western State Agricultural Engineering and Allied Workers' Union
- Western State Association of Professional Agriculturists
The union was a founding affiliate of the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC), and by 1988, it had 50,000 members.[2] In 2008, it merged with the Agricultural and Allied Senior Staff Association to form the Agricultural and Allied Employees' Union of Nigeria (AAEUN), but a group of union members disagreed with the merger and continued operating under the AAWUN name.[3] In 2018, the two unions attempted to merge under the name "Agricultural and Allied Union of Nigeria", but this was not approved by the Registrar of Trade Unions.[4] In 2019, the AAWUN finally merged into the AAEUN.[5]
