After the series of events that unfolded last week, from the inauguration speech to the review of fuel pump price and the announcement of the nationwide strike by NLC, NLC has reached out to all its member unions to join the strike that will begin on Wednesday, June 7 2023.
NLC has called on its member unions such as Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU), Nigeria Union of Teachers (NUT), Academic Staff Union of Polytechnics (ASUP), Nigeria Union of Petroleum and Gas Workers (NUPENG) and others to support its decision.
It reads, “We bring you greetings from the leadership of the Nigeria Labour Congress. You will recall that arising from the National Executive Council meeting held on 2nd June 2023, it was decided that Congress will embark on a nationwide action and withdrawal of services, against the fraudulent increase in the prices of fuel across the thirty-six states of the Federal Republic of Nigeria and the FCT."
"Please be informed that the nationwide action will commence on Wednesday, 7th June, 2023. To this effect, all National Leadership are expected to mobilise their members for the action and ensure full compliance with the directives as services in both the public and private sector are expected to be fully withdrawn by Wednesday, 7th June 2023. All Presidents and General Secretaries are expected to help ensure the implementation of the decisions of the National Executive Council.”
