The Plateau State chapter of the Nigeria Union of Local Government Employees (NULGE), has embarked on an indefinite strike in a bid to avoid a clash between supporters of reinstated Local Government chairmen and the caretaker chairmen recently inaugurated by Gov. Caleb Mutfwang.
The strike which begins on Monday (today), according to the NULGE Chairman in the state, Yohana Makwin Arondon, becomes inevitable following a directive by the State Police Commissioner reinstating the 17 suspended LG chairmen in the state.
Arondon who addressed a press conference in Jos on Sunday evening while announcing the strike, said the statement by the CP that the reinstated chairmen would be led by DPOs of their various LGAs to their offices on Monday has sent a wrong signal.
