The National Union of Electricity Employees has explained why its members embarked on a one-day strike that threw Nigeria into a blackout on Wednesday.
The general secretary of the union, Joe Ajaero, said the strike was because of these unresolved issues.

The documents are there, about four schools were built and being run between the union and the management of NEPA,” he said.
