For failure to commence implementation of the wage increase, the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) and Trade Union Congress (TUC) have ordered all workers to embark on strike from Monday.
Organised Labour stated that the federal government has refused to implement new minimum wage for all workers in the country.
It was also learnt that the strike action is not unconnected with the N35,000 palliative stipend that the Federal government has stopped paying to the federal workers.
Report stated that the federal workers were only paid once for the month of September.
A circular sent by the secretaries of the unions, Emmanuel Igboaja and Nuhu Toro, for NLC and TUC respectively, which was released on Saturday, indicated that all workers are to embark on the strike action with immediate effects commencing from the midnight of Monday.
The organized labour has been holding serial meetings with federal government representatives on the new minimum wage and the subsidy palliatives with no concrete decision reached.
Monday’s strike will be the third since the inception of the administration in May.
