NLC strike: Labour unions suspend Nigeria strike

Government and union representatives say they will now meet every day for a week for further negotiations.

A civil servant in the northern city of Kano told the BBC he was disappointed by the offer, and wanted at least 100,000 naira ($67) a month.

“Even 100,000 naira won’t be enough as prices in the market have gone up but it will be better than what we have now,” said Shittu Lawal, who works in the information ministry in Kano.

“I spend 500 naira to get to work everyday which is not easy, we will return to work now and continue to push for more,” he added.

Early on Monday, the country was plunged into darkness shortly after 02:00 local time (01:00 GMT) when union members prevented operators at the country’s power control rooms from working and closed electricity substations.

Many flights were also cancelled in the country’s busiest airport in Lagos, and in the capital, Abuja, with passengers left stranded.

Schools, offices and hospitals across the country have also been closed.

This strike is the fourth since President Bola Tinubu came to power a year ago.
