The Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) and the Trade Union Congress (TUC) have taken a significant step by suspending their nationwide strike for one week. The decision aims to create space for negotiations regarding a new minimum wage.
The strike, which began on Monday, caused disruptions across various sectors, including schools, companies, hospitals, and airports. Additionally, the national power grid was shut down during the strike, resulting in widespread power outages.
TUC President Festus Osifo announced the suspension following an emergency national executive council meeting in Abuja. During this week, the tripartite committee will engage in discussions to address the minimum wage issue.
Stay tuned for further updates as negotiations unfold.
