THE National President, Nigeria Civil Service Union, Chief Lawrence Amaechi, has threatened that Nigerian workers may embark on sympathy strike with university teachers if the Federal Government, through its attitude, should allow them to embark on another industrial action.

Amaechi, who is National Vice President of the Nigeria Labour Congress, said another strike by the Academic Staff Union of Universities over non-implementation of Memorandum of Action entered into between the Federal Government and ASUU on 23rd December 2020 and as well agreement relating to the renegotiated issues of May 2021 showed alleged government insensitivity.

The NCSU leader, according to a statement titled, ‘Proposed ASUU strike: Nigeria workers threaten sympathy strike if…’ made available in Ado Ekiti on Tuesday, spoke during the International Youth Day celebration organised by the NCSU in Abuja.

He said, “Failure on the part of the Federal Government to implement the agreement may plunge the educational sector into another serious crisis as being threatened by ASUU.

“Other workers across the country may not have other option than to embark on sympathy strike and rescue Nigerian youth from the state of hopelessness. “If stakeholders are concerned with the future of Nigerian youth, the Federal Government should be sensitive enough not to allow another round of strike by members of ASUU,” the NLC vice president said.

Soon everything/everybody will be on strike in this country

As it stands, the entire Economy is grounded.

Another one at least I don learn something sympathy strike.

What a useless administration!

No peace for the wicked.. Buhari has always been wicked!

This worst error Nigerians made was having too much bliv in this present government befor electing them that it wud solve our problems but it ended up worsening it beyond imaginations. Everything is grounded in this country. Imagine N 527 to 1 dollar. I pray Nigerians will wake up and use their senses in the next election. It about individualities not about political parties.

lol. When was Nigeria not grounded?

Who no like better thing?

Dem too wan join the cashing out team.

Failed govt.

If we think strike can make this government to do what we want we are on jonzin level, they're only delaying the future of the youths, we used End SARS protest it end with cry and pains.

Let's just pray this administration finish their tenure and pack n go.

God help us

Why can't the puppet in Aso Rock pay them with all the profits from Customs, JAMB, and more recently NNPC?

I thought they said there is money in the country now because the puppet in Aso Rock is doing well?

After many strikes FEDERAL GOV USE AGE to stop people to apply for a certain job because they know their own children go outside Nigeria to school, THERE WILL NEVER BE PEACE UNTILL THIS COUNTRY IS FOR ALL US.

Good one, atleast let the govt put an end to youth hopelessness

There is fire on the mountain but FG just fold hands dey watch it

This is not good at all...our education sector is in big mess. I just cry for my dear country.

Nigeria Civil servants are the worse hit.....I don't know what they are waiting for...The Resident Doctors have been on strike for how many weeks now

Civil servants that can't afford access to basic healthcare at private hospitals cannot down tool in solidarity to NARD, knowing that their health is paramount

Now, ASUU wants to go on strike...You better join, because you cannot afford private university for your wards!

Effects of all these strike actions no reach the rich...so, the common man, civil servants should join and force the Government to do the right thing!!!

A failed country. Failed government. Failed systems... APC is a big failure

Good

Hopeless corntree.
Nothing works except corruption

I wonder what LASTMA and even the agberoes we have here waiting for? Won't they join in the strike too?

Tbvh, FG no dey care..

Lol
Buharians
Ruga and Islamization

They claim patronise Nigeria to grow Nigeria
But their Kids school abroad
They go for Medications abroad
So the strike will only affect the average and poor masses

Nigeria is a wasteful country, only if we curb our waste then we can have enough to channel into the educational sector

1) Cut the cost of governace
2) Merge or scrap redundant government parastatals

It's so simple!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The bolded is a fact.

Kuku say you want to go on holiday like the lectures... No long holiday since after covid 19 lol

Even the devil is shocked at the wickedness of these Nigerian politicians.

it is high time the entire nation embark on a nation wide strike, employed and unemployed, artisans and non-artisans, youth and age ones.

everyone going on strike, at the least some people have declared sit-at-home, why not everyone showing their grievance simultaneously.
