The nationwide strike declared by the Nigeria Labour Council (NLC) and the Trade Union Congress (TUC), took its toll on the National Assembly as the House of Representatives was forced to adjourned its plenary on Wednesday.
The two labour unions had declared the industrial action on Tuesday following the maltreatment of the NLC President, Joe Ajaero, by alleged political thugs in Imo State on November 1.
During sitting on Wednesday, the lawmakers decided to adjourn plenary proceeding halfway to enable the leadership and members take steps towards ending the ongoing strike by organised labour.
