Breaking: Gbajabiamila, Akpabio’s intervention fail as nationwide strike commences Monday

The effort by the leadership of the National Assembly to urge the Organised Labour Unions to discontinue their proposed nationwide strike has failed.
Recall that the chief of staff to the president , Femi Gbajabiamila and the president of the senate, Godswill Akpabio had met with the leadership of the Nigerian Labour Congress (NLC) and that of the Trade Union Congress (TUC) on Sunday in order to cancel the Monday national wide strike.
Speaking after the failed meeting to force the Organised Labour to call off the proposed strike, the President, Trade Union Congress, TUC, Festus Osifo said that they don’t have the powers to suspend the strike against the backdrop that there are organs that they must report to before a final decision could be taken.
Osifo said, “There was an appeal from the Senate President to call off the strike. On our part, we said we cannot sit here and just call off the strike because we need to report to our people. We will take all their pleas to our organs. For now, we don’t have the powers to call off the strike.”
