Amidst the challenges faced by Nigerians due to the chronic economic downturn, the Nigerian Labour Congress (NLC) and its affiliates have declared a nationwide strike.
The strike, scheduled for Tuesday and Wednesday, September 5th and 6th, 2023, aims to bring attention to the policies of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s administration, which have resulted in widespread hardship and poverty.
Across various states, including Lagos, Kano, Niger, and others, the NLC has received confirmation of their readiness to join the strike.
These states recognize the urgent need for change and stand united with the NLC in demanding better living conditions for all Nigerians.
The Lagos State chapter of the NLC, under the leadership of Mrs. Agnes Sessi, has expressed their unwavering support for the nationwide strike.
Mrs. Sessi affirms that they are bound by the decisions made at the national level and are fully committed to the cause.
By participating in the strike, Lagos State aims to send a strong message to the government that the people deserve better.
As preparations for the strike intensify, the NLC in Lagos State encourages all workers to come together in solidarity.
The collective strength and determination of the people will be the driving force behind the movement for change.
It is not just Lagos State that stands in solidarity with the NLC; other states like Sokoto, Kano, Ekiti, Gombe, Niger, and Bauchi have also pledged their support.
These states understand that change cannot happen without unity.
As the nationwide strike approaches, the NLC and its affiliates are mobilizing their members and preparing for the imminent action.
They are determined to make their voices heard and demand a better future for all Nigerians.
This strike is not just about a two-day protest; it is a call for lasting change.
