Despite Akpabio, Nigerian Govs intervention, Labour proceeds on indefinite strike
The Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) and the Trade Union Congress (TUC) affirmed on Sunday, June 2, that their planned indefinite strike over the new minimum wage will go ahead as planned.

The unions said that they will meet and discuss the appeal made by the leadership of the National Assembly in need to suspend the proposed strike and allow for more dialogue with its organs before taking a decision
