Some of them include that “the issues in dispute can only be resolved when workers are at work and not when they are on strike.“Labour Unions argued for higher wage awards and the Federal Government Team promised to present Labour’s request to President Bola Tinubu for further consideration”.
“NLC and TUC will consider the offers by the Federal Government with a view to suspending the planned strike to allow for further consultations on the implementation of the resolutions above,” Minister of Information and National Orientation Mohammed Idris said in a statement.
