In a last minute move to avert the nationwide Strike billed to commence by the middle night today, the leader of the House of Representatives led by the Speaker, Rep. Femi Gbajabiamila, has commenced an emergency crucial meeting meeting with the organised labour to find possible solution to the crisis.

The closed-doors meeting is being attended by President of the Nigerian Labour Congress (NLC), Comrade Ayuba Wabba; and President of the Trade Union Congress (TUC), Comrade Quadri Olaleye, among others.

Addressing the labour leaders before going into the closed doors session, Rep Gbajabiamila appealed to the labour to shelve the nationwide Strike even for a while to allow the Federal Government to sort out all the issues at stake.

The Nigerian Labour Congress and the Trade Union Congress had jointly declared their readiness to embark on a nationwide strike and protests to compel the Federal Government to reverse the hikes.

We pray the meeting yields positive results. Let them not accept brown envelopes though and come back and begin to double-talk.

You'll rather hear the labour leaders suspend the strike by midnight without any concrete favourable agreement. It's a norm.

Let the right thing be done.. Nigeria must move forward

Nothing good or positive will come out of this ...

NLC is just playing to the gallery

You are obviously still living in the nineties.

Brown envelopes in this era of Ghana-must-go bags?

This strike will be called off latest tonight and demands will not be met. Do you know how much is involved in fuel subsidy? I have 95% assurance the labour leaders are simply hustling for their cuts in the fuel subsidy thingy and a single day subsidy inside ghana-must-go bag will do the magic.

Proactive government..

But enemies of the State will never appreciate the efforts of President Buhari.

Buhari never wanted to contest the election. But we, the good people of Nigeria, knowing he's the only one capable of rescuing Nigeria from its 16 years of bondage under the PDP, begged him to contest. Buhari refused. Some patriotic Nigerians had to approach the court to compel him to contest, this too didn't work. It took the intervention of God, and the love President Buhari has for Nigerians and his fatherland, being a retired general, before he agreed to contest.

His legitimacy was evident as Nigerians voted massively for him.

But the negligible few haters who voted against him, because of his fight against corruption and indiscipline, have vowed to make governance unbearable for him. But Buhari has continued to flourish.

Today, majority of those who wished him death are currently with their ancestors eating Kola nut and sacrifice, but Buhari is still alive, serving the great people of Nigeria.

God bless President Buhari.
God bless Professor Osinbajo.
God bless Nigerians.
God bless the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

Business as usual. These excos can't stand their feet

Just hope the strike will be effective knowing fully well that it's end of the month and majority haven't received their salaries.

Yes

Who does meeting on a Sunday? Unserious people.

This proposed strike is dead on arrival. All this talk is IGG initial gra gra, nothing is working under this government (no single successful protest since 2015). Every thing ends wen paper change hands.

Nah before i dey believe all these unions..... No be now..those days of oshiomole when him head still correct championed the cause of poor masses against hard biting government policies..... Those days are long gone...sadly

The government should pay salaries before labour embarks on stirke oo

Sparogatively, we know how this always plays out!

If not for politics that changed Oshiomole to OshoBaba and now according to Dino OshoPikin, we would have been heaping praises on his NLC led administration, although we still are.

Man was the face and stronghold of the Union. Since he left none had filled that vacancy adequately.
