BREAKING: Economic Shutdown Looms as NLC Threatens Indefinite Strike | Daily Report Nigeria
SHARE

Nigeria faces the possibility of a complete economic shutdown as the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) announces its intention to embark on an indefinite strike in response to the recent increase in fuel prices. 

Daily Report Nigeria reports that the NLC has given the Federal Government a seven-day ultimatum to reverse what they perceive as anti-poor policies, particularly the hike in petrol prices.

During its Central Working Committee (CWC) meeting at the Abuja Labour House on July 25, the labor union made its decision, saying that If the government does not comply with their demands, the NLC members will commence a nationwide strike on August 2, 2023.

The NLC strongly condemns the government’s recent actions, including the rise in petrol prices, the increase in electricity tariffs, and the planned removal of fuel subsidies, as they are viewed as being insensitive to the struggles faced by the less privileged and working-class citizens.

In response, the union has instructed all its affiliates and state councils to mobilize workers and other Nigerians, along with civil society allies, in preparation for a sustained strike and large-scale protests.

Earlier, members of the Nigerian Association of Resident Doctors declared an indefinite strike on Tuesday.

Among the demands made by the doctors include the implementation of the one-for-one replacement policy for healthcare workers; the Medical and Dental Council of Nigeria to discontinue the downgrading of the membership certificate issued by the West African Postgraduate Medical and Surgical Colleges; the immediate payment of all salary arrears; the implementation of the Consolidated Medical Salary Structure; a new hazard allowance; and the domestication of the Medical Residency Training Act; and others.
