*Urges Nigerian To Prepare and Stock Up Food
The Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) and the Trade Union Congress (TUC) of Nigeria have jointly declared an indefinite strike set to commence on October 3.
In anticipation of this labour action, both organizations are urging Nigerians to stock up on essential food supplies due to the expected shutdown of economic activities across the nation.
President Joe Ajaero of NLC and President Festus Osifo of the TUC made this announcement following separate Emergency National Executive Council (NEC) meetings held in Abuja on Tuesday.
The decision to initiate the indefinite strike was prompted by what they perceive as the government’s lack of sensitivity to the challenges faced by Nigerians, particularly regarding the removal of the petrol subsidy and a perceived lack of proactive measures to palliate the move.
