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, dismissed the notice on Sunday while speaking in Abuja.
- Why we suspended nationwide strike – NLC, TUC
- Fuji legend, Saheed Osupa graduates from Ibadan varsity
- Just In: NLC, TUC suspend strike
Upah labelled 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 on Monday as fake news.
“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,” Upah stated.
The NLC spokesman urged concerned Nigerians to ignore the notice.
