JUST IN: NLC/TUC DECLARES NATIONWIDE STRIKE OVER NEW MINIMUM WAGE

Read Time:36 Second

Due to the tripartite committee’s inability to reach a consensus on a new minimum wage, the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) and Trade Union Congress (TUC) have announced a statewide strike that would commence on Monday, June 3rd, 2024.

The strike was declared on Friday in Abuja during a joint news conference by TUC President Festus Osifo and the NLC leadership.

The decision was made, according to labor groups, since the Federal Government had already been asked to wrap up all negotiations for a new minimum wage by the end of May.

Once, organized labor withdrew from the negotiations and turned down two offers from the Federal Government—the most recent being an N60,000 minimum wage.
