The ongoing 4-day warning strike by the staff of the National Assembly may disrupt President Muhammadu Buhari’s 2019 budget presentation before the federal legislature tomorrow, Daily Trust reports.
Buhari had last week requested the two chambers of the National Assembly to allow him to present the budget proposal tomorrow, being December 19. But that is being threatened by the warning strike.
The National Assembly workers, under the platform of the Parliamentary Staff Association of Nigeria (PASAN), made good their resolve to embark on the warning strike yesterday, a decision they took last Friday. In their hundreds, the PASAN members blocked all the entrances to the National Assembly, preventing legislators and top management staff as well as every other person from gaining access into the complex.
