NLC debunks rumour of impending strike, says it’s fake

The Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) has debunked stories making the rounds of a planned strike to commence on Monday, December 18.

The organised labour was reacting to a circular addressed to the state councils and affiliates of the NLC and the Trade Union Congress of Nigeria, (TUC) reminding them of strike action to commence on Monday.

The alleged circular purportedly signed by the General Secretary of the NLC, Comrade Emma Ugbaja and the Secretary General of the TUC, Comrade Nuhu Toro, had directed the affiliate unions to withdraw their services on December 18.
