The planned strike action slated for Tuesday, 9th January, 2024 by the Maritime Workers Union of Nigeria (MWUN) to ground activities at the nation’s seaports has been suspended.
The suspension follows intervention by the management of the Nigerian Ports Authority (NPA) led by the Managing Director, Mohammed Bello-Koko.
In a communique issued by the President-General of MWUN, Prince Adewale Adeyanju, through the MWUN’s Head of Media, John Ikemefuna at the end of the stakeholders’ engagement, the IOCs have substantially complied with the deployment of Labour, while the matter of equipment deployment is to be examined within the next three months.
