The Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) has directed workers nationwide to return to work immediately effective from midnight of Wednesday 6th September, 2023.
The decision was reached on Thursday after NLC National Executive Council (NEC) meeting.
Recall NLC resolved to embark on a 2- day warning strike beginning from Tuesday 5th September, 2023 two days ago.
President of the Congress Comrade Joe Ajaero, warned that the same passion and determination that fueled this warning strike will be crucial if we find ourselves compelled to embark on an indefinite nationwide strike.
He said with the success of the 2- day action, It is abundantly clear that our united message has resonated loudly with the government, and it would take a truly inattentive ear not to hear it.
In his words: “As we mark the end of the two-day nationwide warning strike today, at the stroke of midnight, we earnestly call upon you all to gracefully conclude the strike and return to work tomorrow, in accordance with our initial agreement.
“In the event that the government fails to provide the appropriate responses to our demands, we encourage you to maintain your steadfast resolve.
“The same passion and determination that fueled this warning strike will be crucial if we find ourselves compelled to embark on an indefinite nationwide strike.”
