THE Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) is set to embark on a Nationwide Strike over the sack of thousands of workers in Kaduna State, other anti-labour practices and failure of the state government to respect the memorandum of understanding (MoU) they signed on the crisis. 

The NLC say all agencies of government have been alerted, sequel to a letter sent to President Muhammadu Buhari on the refusal of the Kaduna State Government to abide with the MoU signed.

Speaking to the Press on Tuesday after an emergency meeting, the NLC President Comrade Ayuba Wabba, informed  that after exhausting all avenues, including writing letters to President Buhari and Senator Ngige, the Congress had  taken its decisions and that is to resume the strike.

Wabba went on to state that the decision of NEC on the nationwide strike had been communicated officially to all parties concerned. 

 The NLC informed that it had directed all its affiliate unions and state councils to commence mobilization of workers across the country for immediate take-off of the strike. 

 It will be recalled that The Minister of Labour and Employment, Senator Chris Ngige, had earlier on intervened after the initial Labour strike in Kaduna State however the Kaduna State government remains adamant.
