The Organised Labour in Kebbi State has instructed workers to begin indefinite strike on Tuesday, March 3.
The state Chairman of Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC), Umar Alhassan, disclosed this to newsmen at the end of an Executive Council Meeting on Thursday in Birnin Kebbi.
“There has not been positive response from government in respect to our demands. We have directed members to go on and mobilise ahead of our industrial action which is coming up on Tuesday,” he said.
Alhassan said although the congress received an invitation for a meeting from government on Wednesday, the invitation will not stop labour from going on with the strike.
Also speaking, the state Chairman of Trade Union Congress (TUC), Hussaini Yelwa, said all unions under the congress had been mobilised for the strike.
