In less than 24 hours after embarking on nationwide protests against the removal of fuel subsidy, the Organized Labour has suspended its proposed strike action.
The President of Trade Union Congress, Festus Osifo made this known during an interview with newsmen Thursday morning.
He said the Labour leaders who had earlier met with President Bola Tinubu extracted some commitments to some of the issues raised during the meeting for immediate implementation.
He explained the suspension of the strike was based on this.
The NLC President, Comrade Joe Ajaero noted that the outcome of the meeting with the government did not yield positive any changes or concessions that would alter their course of action. They stressed that they remained steadfast in their commitment to representing the Nigerian workers’ and people’s interests and desires.
