Breaking: NLC, TUC Suspend Nationwide Strike

By Milcah Tanimu

The Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) and the Trade Union Congress (TUC) have called off their nationwide strike. TUC president Festus Osifo confirmed this development on Tuesday in Abuja, adding that a formal statement will be released shortly.

This decision came after a tripartite meeting of the National Minimum Wage Committee, which began at around 5 pm on Monday. The meeting, held at the office of the Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF) George Akume, focused on discussions about a potential increase in the minimum wage.

Following the meeting, the federal government and the labor unions reached agreements, which were documented and signed by all parties. SGF George Akume, who briefed the media on the outcome, revealed that President Bola Tinubu is committed to a minimum wage higher than ₦60,000.
