Breaking: NLC issues FG fresh seven-day strike notice
The Nigeria Labour Congress has given the Federal Government a seven-day ultimatum to reverse all its recent anti-poor policies or face an industrial action.
It specifically announced that strike would commence on August 2 if the FG failed to act.
The decision was taken at an NLC’s Central Working Committee meeting held on Tuesday, July 25, in Abuja.
Some of the FG’s actions being contested by the union are the recent hike in the pump price of petrol resulting from the sudden removal of petrol subsidy.
The NLC has thus directed all its affiliates and state councils to immediately begin mobilisation of workers and other Nigerians, including civil society allies, for a long-lasting strike and mass protests should the government fail to meet its demands.
