The Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) and Trade Union Congress (TUC) have directed their state councils and industrial unions across to mobilise workers to down tools tomorrow.
.
.
The industrial action is hinged on Federal Government’s failure to meet its demand on new minimum wage.
.
.
The NLC had given government a 14-day ultimatum to reconvene the tripartite committee, which was set up by Pres. Buhari in November, 2017, to arrive at a new minimum wage which it promised to announce and implement by the end of September 2018.
.
.
However, the Minister of Labour and Employment, Dr. Chris Ngige, had, few weeks ago, mentioned that the new minimum wage was no longer feasible this September.
