FG Files Contempt Proceeding Against NLC, TUC Over Protests by 2mercy(op): 7:53pm On Aug 02, 2023

The Federal Government on Wednesday filed a contempt proceeding against the Nigeria Labour Congress, NLC, and the Trade Union Congress, TUC, for allegedly embarking on an industrial action contrary to a June 5, 2023, exparte order by the National Industrial Court, NIC.

The “notice of consequences of disobedience to order of court” filed before NIC in Abuja, was addressed to NLC President, Joe Ajaero; Deputy Presidents, Audu Aruba, Prince Adeyanju Adewale and Kabiru Sani; General Secretary, Emmanuel Ugboaja; TUC President, Engr Festus Usifo; Scribe/ Chief Executive, Nuhu Toro.

The contempt notice signed by Senior Registrar, Balogun Olajide, reads: “Take notice that unless you obey the directions contained in the order of the National Industrial Court, Abuja, delivered by Honourable Justice Y. Anuwe on June 5, 2023, as per the attached enrolled order, you will be guilty of contempt of court and will be liable to be committed to Prison.”

The FG also attached a copy of the exparte order made by Justice Anuwe on June 5, 2023, to the notice of contempt proceeding forwarded to the NLC and TUC officials.

The order reads in part: “Having therefore considered the totality of this application, I make the following orders: The defendants/Respondents are hereby~ restrained from embarking on the planned Industrial Action/or strike of any nature pending the hearing and determination of the Motion on Notice dated June 5, 2023.

“It is ordered that the defendant/Respondents be immediately served with the originating processes in this suit, the Motion on Notice and the order of this court hereby made.

“The Motion on Notice is hereby fixed for hearing for June 19, 2023. The Hearing Notices to that effect shall be served on the defendants/Respondent along with the other processes.”

Tinubu will trap them with jail terms. Some Nigerians supporting Tinubu on this one, because TUC and NLC leaders flopped after raising the hopes of Nigerians to high heaven that the protest will be a fight to finish, instead they ran to fight another after small Egunje for pocket. But that another may not come, because they may end up in kirikiri prison.

They've not even started.

The last time Nigerians stood up against SARS, we all saw how it went.

A time will come, very soon, when Nigerians will rise against "the government", when that time comes, we'll see who they'll be filing these court cases on. The same courts that the government doesn't obey.

Everyone flouting court directives with reckless abandon.

The court has to make scapegoats out of some people. But then who is going to effect the Court order?

Has Emefiele been released to the Correctional Center?

I am confused here...why negotiate or agree to meet with the NLC on one hand, and filing contempt charges against them on the other hand?

And the nlc chairman was talking yen yen, why go back to work with just promises, where these promises not made before the strike? Why did u still embark on the strike. Let me tell you. All of this is planned. Government ways of controlling the masses. The secrecy in government is what many people don't understand, it's all a plan by the government and nlc to keep Nigerians in this path. The protest today believe was just a government control measure. They don't want the real protesters to take over the streets as they noticed in some state already. How can portharcourt refinery start work in less than six moths, are they repairing a car engine? Must they lie? Abegiii
