Get ready for nationwide strike, NLC tells workers


   Ahead of the expiration of the ultimatum issued by labour unions over the minimum wage implementation, the unions have asked their branches across the country to get set for an industrial action.

  It was reported how labour leaders issued a communiqué, warning that economic activities would be shut on October 16 if the federal government failed to reconvene a meeting of the committee on consequential adjustments of workers salaries based on the new minimum wage.

The unions, led by the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC), also insisted that the government should hold a final meeting on October 15 to resolve the disagreements. The federal government and the unions have met on different occasions to deliberate and resolve the minimum wage controversy.
