THE MAN CHALLENGING the president of the National Union of Public Workers (NUPW), Akanni McDowall, in the upcoming election believes the time has come for the union to change its image.

And Roy Greenidge is pledging a makeover if he is elected at the April 5 vote.

Greenidge, a senior immigration officer, is contending that under the presidency of McDowall, the NUPW has been immature in its handling of labour-management issues.

He said public officers were also genuinely concerned about the direction in which the union was going. (RB)
