NLC Reveals That It Has No Agreement With FG to Suspend Strike

The Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) says it has no agreement with the Federal Government to call off the planned indefinite strike for Oct. 3.

Mr Benson Upah, Head of Information and Public Affairs in NLC said this in a statement today in Abuja.

Upah was reacting to a statement allegedly issued by Mr Olajide Oshundun, Director, Press and Public Relations in the Ministry of Labour and Employment.

Upah said there were some inconsistencies in the statement, which included the proposed strike and the illegal occupation of the secretariat of the National Union of Road Transport Workers (NURTW).

He, therefore, commended the role played by the Minister of Labour and Employment, Mr Simon Lalong in securing the release of the executives of the NURTW from unlawful, illegal police detention.
