Due to the Federal Government’s failure to abide by its commitments over the removal of petrol subsidies, Labour went on a two-day nationwide strike on Tuesday and Wednesday.
The NLC’s decision halted business and economic activity in a number of Federation states.
“We are pleased to report that, thanks to your resolute commitment, we have made significant strides in achieving the goals set during our National Executive Council (NEC) meeting, which prompted the initiation of this warning strike,” Ajaero said.
“It is abundantly clear that our united message has resonated loudly with the government, and it would take a truly inattentive ear not to hear it.
“As we mark the end of the two-day nationwide warning strike today, at the stroke of midnight, we earnestly call upon you all to gracefully conclude the strike and return to work tomorrow, in accordance with our initial agreement.”
