The National Labour Congress (NLC) and Trade Union Congress (TUC) have given the Federal Government a 14-day pre-strike notice.
The organised labour said that their agreements with the Tinubu-led government in October 2023 had not been implemented.
Part of the agreement reached in October was that the federal government would increase the minimum wage, however, it is yet to be implemented.
The national leadership of the TUC and NLC expressed sadness that the government appears indifferent to the widespread suffering and adversity in the nation despite their attempts to maintain industrial peace.
“The October 2nd agreement was focused on addressing the massive suffering and the general harsh socioeconomic consequences of the ill-conceived and ill-executed IMF/World Bank-induced hike in the price of PMS and the devaluation of the naira. As we predicted, these dual policies have had dire economic consequences for the masses and workers of Nigeria.”
