Organized Labour, comprising the Nigerian Labour Congress (NLC) and the Trade Union Congress (TUC), has declared a total and indefinite nationwide strike action set to commence on Tuesday, November 14, 2023. The announcement comes following an emergency meeting held in Abuja.
The decision to embark on the nationwide strike follows a recent attack on NLC President, Joe Ajaero, in Imo State. Labor unions had previously threatened to take this course of action in response to the attack. The strike is expected to disrupt various sectors and industries across Nigeria as the labor unions seek to address their concerns and grievances.
Further details and the specific demands of the organized labor are expected to be communicated in the coming days as the strike action unfolds.
