The day the NLC decided to go full blown politic is the day they destroy their legitimacy.
I don't think I have seen any NLC president public come out to campaign for or support any party.

Why? Because the NLC is made up of members with different political affiliations. All workers in Nigeria do not automatically support the Labour party so the leadership is supposed to play neutral.

Secondly, they are expected to negotiate with whichever party is in power and it might not be the LP. They need legitimacy and standing to represent the workers without the risk of being regarded as saboteurs - by the government and the public at large.

This NLC has messed up in these regard.

The judiciary as become the new problem of Nigeria

mactoni91:
The Judiciary dn finally join politics...

Politicians are now above the Law and untouchable.

Just like how NLC also joined politics and raising the hands of a certain presidential aspirants during the general elections.

Judiciary have lost its relevance and it's been controlled by executive

Politicians make una continue. Una don destroy every facet of the so called institution in Nigeria. Una hear me so

Una don desecrate every sector of democracy to Demonstration of craze without pity all because of power. The thing don intoxicate una sotey even the third realm, the media houses don become Lagos ibadan expressway Media for una hand...

Und don forget say power pass power. Una don dey forget say this kain thing na e dey give the Khacki boys enough reason to kick una asses..

When e happen, una go start cry, una go remember say Military bad .make una no worry, wen e happen, una go still blame tribalism

Make una continue

As it is now, no union can go on strike. The right to strike is gone. Since ngige with his five rings on five fingers established comradeship with the court to stop ASUU strike & we all applauded him, that'll be the template for all unions going forward. ASUU is an affiliate of NLC & yet NLC did nothing then to protest the ridiculous govt actions. I do have reservations with ajaero's approach and obvious election interference, but bastardising courts is a legacy of ngige & his presumed boss, buhari.

It's up to NLC and TUC to choose weather to Obey the court order or go on with their strike.

ivandragon:
The turn of the judiciary will come when the ruthless & heartless presidency will turn its blood sucking fangs on then...

But there will be no one to save the judiciary...

By the grace of God Almighty. But may I ask what the Court will do if the strikes goes on? Supposing (God forbid) Joe Ajairo was killed, can the court wake him up? Where was the so called court when people are being oppressed if I may ask? Anyway no prob. I rest my case.

The government will always argue that the strike would not be in the nation's interest. So the NLC should counter with legitimate reason allowed by law why they should have the strike.

If you want a nation governed by the rule of law, then every institution, not just the government must be ready to submit themselves to it.

Our idea of justice is that its a weapon to use to punish people or defeat ideas we don't like, forgetting that it goes both ways. Some people don't like you too and your ideas just like you don't like them and theirs too. So what do you expect the courts to do when you both go before it?

Aareakinwunmi:
Ajaero will be pained by this News


He's One of the worst labour leaders ever seen in this country.

Will be pained? D pain u dey go through now nko.. just look at sufferings everywhere. It will never be well with this evil party and his supporters.

Bobloco:
When are we going to see judges rebuke and impose heavy fines on these individuals working for the government coming to procure black market court orders stopping a legitimate strike action.

When are we going to see judges rebuke governments for not honouring agreements entered into with these labour unions

Who told you i won't beat ajaero to stupor if i'm able to meet him in a tight corner? If dem born am well, make e come do nonsense for ondo state...

Judges are just cashing out in this Bulaba's administration.

This events happening is what happened exactly in the first republic that brought about the deadliest coup in Nigeria's history. You keep flogging a dog, the day the dog will bite back, you won't expect it.

He's even better off dead on the campaign ground than the mess he's dragging the nation into... Those who beat him made a huge mistake for not removing one of his eyes

ismhab:
Is Federal government afraid of strike? Why is Federal government always in rush to look for court injunction but never obey court order?

Court gave order to release Nmadi kanu as well as Godwin emifele, but they refused.

Who is the criminal here that use to disobey court order?

Your two detained brothers are terrorist and cant just be released like that. Ajaero too is to be arrested and charge for treason

Iamzik:


Government neve stopped NLC from going on stike until APC entered Aso rock. These APC that rode to power on the back of nationwide protest !

Going on strike because of union matter or because an i.diot was beating at a campaign venue? abet shift

mamaafrik:
The speed at which court always expedites this their judgement when it comes to NLC stoppage ,if put in criminal matter would have been Trail blazing.
Corruption Judiciary.....

As if NLC ain't criminal body... dey play

The judiciary is worst than the executive and legislative arm of government combined. Very corrupt.

yommen:


The union itself might not yield to the ruling of the court. Just watch. But why give 2 weeks notice?

It's high time the masses( most especially the unemployed ones) start beating up any NLC member seen agitating for any stupid strike... Come out and let me see any of your member in my state doing nonsense. May ogun kill u all

Which court? Nigeria Court?

helinues:


The strikers don turn to defenders. Chai, Ajaero just dey receive beating from every angle.

Bad news for some people. Sane Nigerians are happy with this development news.

Forward ever Nigeria

Helinues try to be useful and engaged. You are no longer young at 49.

It's time to ban this NLC, ASUU and Tuc
