The NLC said this in a communiqué issued at the end of an emergency meeting of its National Executive Council in Abuja on Tuesday.
In the communiqué signed by the President of the NLC, Ayuba Wabba, and its General Secretary, Dr Peter Ozo-Eson, the union directed all affiliate unions, state councils, civil society allies, the informal sector and other friends of workers and lovers of democracy to commence immediate mobilisation of their members.
The NLC lambasted the government for its ‘no work, no pay’ policy, adding that what should have been implemented was ‘no pay, no work’.
The NLC maintained that the national minimum wage must be N30,000 even as it accused the Minister of Labour and Employment, Dr Chris Ngige, of insincerity.
The union asked workers to disregard the ‘no work, no pay’ policy even as it restated its resolve to embark on a strike if the national minimum wage is not reviewed upward by November 6.

*I dont Understand why the govt is not attending to this people..ah ah...where is all the monies collected from looters?
They are not even making the minimum wage 50000 naira. Ordinary 30000 naira o. The wrath of God should just consume these people already.
ReplyDeleteIn Nigeria our leaders share money everyday but the masses are forced to eat grass even when they work like elephants. They will keep you telling you no money but yet have billions to buy an ordinary ticket for their political ambitions.
