The Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) and the Trade Union Congress (TUC) have suspended their Wednesday scheduled nationwide strike.
The decision was arrived at after a meeting between federal government and organized labor officials on Monday night at the presidential villa to discuss the withdrawal of fuel subsidies.
The National Industrial Court prevented Organized Labor from going on any kind of strike earlier on Monday.
Justice O.Y. Anuwe made a decision based on an exparte application submitted to the court, preventing the defendants (the TUC and the NLC) from going on the scheduled nationwide strike on Wednesday while the motion of notice dated June 5, 2023 is heard and decided.
The originating proceedings, the motion on notice, and the court order must all be served on the defendants right away, the judge further directed.
On Monday, June 19, officials of the federal government and organized labor are scheduled to restart their discussions.
