The Nigeria Labour Congress, NLC, has called off its 2-day warning strike against the economic hardship in the country stating that it has made ‘significant strides’ in achieving the goals set by the National Executive Council of the organization.
In a statement by the President, Comrade Joe Ajaero on Wednesday, it urged workers to resume work on Thursday as the united message has been sent to the government.
“We are pleased to report that, thanks to your resolute commitment, we have made significant strides in achieving the goals set during our National Executive Council (NEC) meeting, which prompted the initiation of this warning strike.
“It is abundantly clear that our united message has resonated loudly with the government, and it would take a truly inattentive ear not to hear it.
“As we mark the end of the two-day nationwide warning strike today, at the stroke of midnight, we earnestly call upon you all to gracefully conclude the strike and return to work tomorrow with our initial agreement.”
NLC embarked on a warning strike over the refusal of the Federal government to engage and address the plight of Nigerians seriously. It also complained about the blatant violaworkers’ workers rights in various States including the Federal Capital Territory, FCT.
