Here is the official statement released by NLC after the first day of the strike 14-11-2023.

NIGERIA LABOUR CONGRESS
MOTTO: LABOUR CREATES WEALTH

TO ALL AFFILIATES & STATE COUNCILS.

Fraternal Greetings!

INDEFINITE NATIONWIDE STRIKE: A GREAT BEGINNING

We wish to appreciate and congratulate all Affiliates and State Councils for the great work in complying with the directive of the National Executive Council (NEC) resolution to begin a nationwide strike today.

Congress salutes your resoluteness and determination in ensuring that all of our workplaces were that down completely and workers stayed at home. The solidarity and singlemindedness in delivering on our resolutions has put a lie to those who wants to see a contrary outcome and have thoroughly made a resounding statement around the nooks and crannies of our nation.

Our assessment showed more than expected compliance in today's outing despite being the first day of action. Gaps that were expected on the first day were surprisingly not that very visible. Just like an Aeroplane taking off will experience a little bit of drag in lifting off the tarmac, ours today was a smooth and cleaner take off. We doff our hats for you all and congratulate you for your doggedness.

You surpassed our expectations than we urge you to gird your loins and make it more compelling tomorrow until the Government meets our demands. Continue the mobilisation and let the success continue!
We remain committed to greater success in this action which can only happen with our collective efforts and determination to free our members in Imo state and ensure that the Government is held accountable for its use of violent abduction and brutality as a tool in workplace engagement.

Fraternally yours,

Comrade Emmanuel Ugboaja Esq. mni General Secretary

Maybe the industries in SadEast due to the perennial Monday sit at home 🤣🤣😂

This looks like a personal conflicting issues between the NLC and "Imo State Government" ... Not the whole country....
The strike would have been better to hold only in IMO state....

Ola9ja23:


Maybe the industries in SadEast due to the perennial Monday sit at home 🤣🤣😂

You have really lost it all

It's obvious the NLC strike is for the selfish interest of the NLC president and it's members.

Thought those NLC were embarking on the strike to make Nigeria better?

Mohammed can really be stupid. For your information most private enterprise do not go on strike. If there is anyone who will encure loss,I think that should be the federal government.

When the striking workers are tired, no one will tell them before they go back to work. Ever since the NLC president supported LP presidential candidate for the 2023 elections, he could no longer wash himself clean as non-partisan, reason why govt treat his actions with suspicion.

some of you just like to talk but not well informed. NNPC is on strike, FG revenue generating agencies are on strike. FG has a lot to lose than those companies. Do those company CEOs buy need money for private yacht? Do they need money for jumping abroad every week? The strike will hurt tinubu and the political class because they will have to double their efforts in borrowing to meet up so as not to provoke the electorate if they are not able to pay salary. Tinubu will have lesser free money to use for briibing judges, renovating his house or changing cars. As for those companies they were already losing money since tinubu dollar policy. It was only tinubu that gained through the dollar policy because he had 1.9 trillion naira to share in one month instead of the former 700 billion naira. That was because the new naira rate was used to convert Nigeria earnings. Though you are defending him only because he is from your tribe, but he is under pressure as long as NNPC is on strike

Ajaero the clown Nobody 0will take you serious again.

Monkeys can never get serious - too playful to realize there will be no protest in this country

you are among those supporting evil going on in nigeria one day it I'll reach your own turn to collect

Please someone should help highlight their demands because I see nothing reasonable


The nation should be shut down because 2 short men refused to fight fairly? Okay, let's ride

Which faction of the NLC?

Ajaero is from Owerri Zone wants to be Governor of Imo State and that's why he has been trying to sabotage Uzodinma. Now that Uzodinma has said Owerri Zone will produce the next Governor Owerri zone rallied behind Uzodinma.
Now, Ajaero knows he's out of the equation, and he's throwing tantrums.

In the next few weeks, the NLC will be divided and the short end of the stick given to Ajaero. He can be competing with Simon Ekpa on who can destroy economy most, but he should sha not let Hope Uzodinma catch him.

No matter what, NLC is still the ONLY TOOL Nigerians have (especially the Nigerian workers) to fight this Govt. Even the Judiciary now belongs to the Government's pocket talkless of Student unions, the so called civil rights societies, etc.
.
We as Nigerians must hold on to this last straw of the common man (NLC) which we can still use to hold the Govt to a certain standard...

We must stand with Ajaero if not Nigerians own don finish kpatakpata under this d£m0nic APC....

Don't fall for the massive propaganda against AJAERO (as instructed in all APC WhatsApp groups) to be carried out by thier numerous paid propagandaist, some of which are very active on Nairaland. This paid propagandaist devus are AGAINST the NIGERIAN PEOPLE and working for thier principals. They are NOT on the side of you and I and the common Nigerians
Don't ALLOW yourself to be swayed by them. That's thier paid mission


NIGERIANS MUST STAND WITH AJAERO
