NLC dismisses notice of nationwide strike

NLC

The Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) has dismissed a notice of nationwide strike allegedly scheduled for Monday.

Mr. Benson Upah, NLC Head of Information and Public Affairs, said  the  statement purportedly signed by General Secretary of NLC and Secretary General of TUC, Emmanuel Ugboaja and Nuhu Toro respectively, that a nationwide strike would commence today was fake.

“We want to re-assure  Nigerians that this notice did  not emanate from us, and neither do we have any intention of initiating any strike action this period.”

He said concerned Nigerians were advised to ignore the notice and tray it as fake.
