Nigeria Labour Congress embarked on a nationwide strike effective 12am this morning, yet I can't help but notice that Access Bank PLC branches are still open. What's going on? Banks aren't part of the NLC now?

NIGERIA LABOUR CONGRESS STRIKES

So unfortunate that in a critical time like this in our country that the health system will also experience a black out.

Hospitals to close down from this midnight as in regards to the NLC warning strike.

What is your opinion on this strike?

Is there any time Nigeria Labour Congress and Trade Union Congress organize a strike to protest the rate of unemployment in our nation? Who will fight the cause of the unemployed?

Minimum Wage:

Government workers have complied with the sit at home order by Nigeria Labour Congress.

Workers are demanding for a new minimum wage. They want the current 18, 000 be changed to 56, 000 naira.

The government should approve the minimum wage.
All I know is that their is money in this country.
Cutting down all the extravagant expenses and lifestyle of our leaders,will do for a start.

I support the Nigeria Labour Congress.
