The Senate has urged the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC), Trade Union Congress (TUC), and the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) to end their ongoing strike for the sake of national interest.
Led by Senate President Godswill Akpabio, the Senate’s leadership was directed to swiftly engage with union representatives for a peaceful resolution of their demands.
This decision followed a motion titled ‘The need for Labour to reconsider their industrial action in the interest of patriotism and for the rule of law and order,’ presented by Senate Leader Opeyemi Bamidele during the plenary session.
This action by the Senate occurred as NLC and TUC leaders engage in discussions with the Federal Government concerning the ongoing strike.
The strike was initiated after the attack on NLC President Joe Ajaero in Imo State, prompting the unions to declare a nationwide indefinite strike.
