In a bold move, organized labour is set to launch an indefinite nationwide strike starting from midnight on November 14, defying a court order aimed at preventing such action.

The protest is in response to the physical assault on Mr Joe Ajaero, President of the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC), during a demonstration in Imo.

President of Trade Union Congress (TUC), Mr Festus Osifo, confirmed the impending strike during a joint news conference with NLC in Abuja.

The decision stems from the alleged attack on Ajaero, who led a protest in Imo against perceived anti-workers’ policies and the non-payment of 20-month salary arrears by the state government.

Despite a court order restraining the organized labour from initiating the nationwide strike, Osifo emphasized their unwavering commitment to the decision made by their joint National Executive Councils (NECs) last week.

Osifo declared, “Effective from midnight on 14 November, we shall declare a nationwide strike. All affiliates of the TUC and NLC, along with state councils, have been thoroughly mobilized.

This indefinite strike will persist until governments at all levels address their responsibilities comprehensively.”

Highlighting conditions for strike suspension, the TUC president insisted on a government-led investigation into the attack on Ajaero.

He stressed that individuals involved in the assault must face prosecution or disciplinary action.

Additionally, both unions demand an immediate, independent, and unbiased professional medical examination for all victims.

Osifo outlined further demands, including the restoration of lost properties and the urgent implementation of previously agreed-upon Industrial Relations agreements with the Imo government.

In this critical juncture, the labour unions stand united, resolute, and prepared for a protracted protest until their concerns are addressed by the authorities.
