Nigeria’s organised labour has suspended its nationwide strike, which began on Tuesday.
The Joint National Executive Council of the two leading labour unions which declared the strike – the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) and Trade Union Congress of Nigeria (TUC) – announced the suspension of the industrial action at the end of a meeting Wednesday evening, reports said.
The development came a few hours after the labour leaders listed six demands and subsequently met with the National Security Adviser (NSA), Nuhu Ribadu.
