Newsonline reports that the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC), announced a one day nationwide protest over the Federal Government’s inconclusive negotiations with the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) which has led to the extension of the union’s strike action.
The NLC President, Mr Ayuba Wabba disclosed this at the opening of the Congress’ Central Working Committee (CWC) meeting on Thursday in Abuja, according to NAN.
They said the purpose of the strike is to force the FG to find a close to the negotiations.
The NLC chief said he was sad over the continued closure of Nigeria’s Universities due to unresolved labour disputes between the Federal Government and unions in education.
He said the NLC has asked affiliates by the next one week to issue statements adding that the decision to embark on the one-day national protest was imperative as children of the poor had continued to remain at home.
Newsonline Nigeria reported last week that ASUU maintained that they have not received any official invitation from the Federal Government for the earlier announced meeting with the government team aimed at resolving the areas of disagreements and calling off the strike.
