Ajaero: Labour orders shutdown of power supply, flights in Imo

The Organised Labour on Tuesday ordered the shutdown of electricity and fuel supplies in Imo State following the assault of the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) President, Joe Ajaero, by police last week.

The NLC and Trade Union Congress (TUC) took the decision at the extraordinary National Executive Council (NEC) meeting in Abuja.

In a communiqué issued at the end of the meeting, the unions also directed aviation workers to stop flights into and outside the state.
