Activities were brought to a halt in all NAFDAC offices nationwide due to the ongoing 7 days warning strike declared by the Federal Area Council (FAC) of the Medical and Health Workers Union of Nigeria (MHWUN), which is saddled with the responsibility of protecting the interests of its staff members.
The chairman of the NAFDAC branch of MHWUN, Comrade Olu Ogundola, said that NAFDAC offices will remain under lock and key until their plights are met by the management and the Federal government. Com. Ogundola also declared that after the 7 days warning strike and nothing happened, the Union may consider an indefinite strike, which may last for months.

The issues were contained in a communique issued by the NAFDAC branch of MHWUN at the end of their 6th extra-ordinary congress held at NAFDAC Headquarters, Isolo, Lagos on Ocyober 4, 2015. The contending issues include:

Review of salary/allowances.
Appointments of Deputy Directors In-Charge for Laboratory services and Food Safety & Apllied Nutrition Directorates respectively.
Drivers mandatory training by the Ministry of Works Training School, Abeokuta.
Appointments of Consultants in NAFDAC.
2015 Productivity Allowances.
Suspension of staff members without trial.

Also, the FAC Chairman, Com. Attah Ibrahim, said that activities were grounded due to NAFDAC management's insincerity and insensitivity to the sufferings of the entire staff of the award-winning agency. And that until the NAFDAC management meets the plights of its staff members, the gates will remain locked.

Eye-witnesses disclosed that so many customers and visitors were denied entrance into all NAFDAC offices. Below are photos showing the ever-busy Isolo Lagos office of NAFDAC looking so deserted, not even a single vehicle or person in sight.

Hmm
Must we turn/relate everything to tribal issues? Every tribe is involve in the importation of these bad/contraband products. Let's agree its igbos that imports them(which they are not the only people) the ports and borders that the goods pass into the country are dominated by yoruba and hausa officers, so tell me who is innocent here? If the goods can't be cleared will the igbo man import it?

Ok

I'm sure many IPOD scoundrels would rush to self-service on the thread without reading it. They get excited like rhesus monkeys on steroids at the sound of bad news- one wonders what business they have with strictly Nigerian affairs.

For such folks, this info is for you- the strike isn't about owed salaries, it is about a commitment made by the previous government to review upwardly their salaries and allowances and then appoint a "director" from their union (a thing of nothing but pride).

I know government is a continuum, but it is too early in the life of the current admin to take such an action over the failed promises of the immediate past admin.

#screw any IPOD tout who quotes me, a Nigerian, an spits trash.

oga o....

Buhari would soon sack that ibo man and replace him with one abokiii. E no dey hard am

Oga ooooo. D strick musnt not be approved

Like someone cares .
When they were not on strike, what did they achieve?

Bad timing...

Wish them good rest in their strike. Never really feel them sha, so, I won't know if their going on strike will really affect me.

Bad idea

Kkk end time strike

Hmmm

God help us
