After meeting with FG, labour suspends indefinite strike planned to commence Tuesday

The organised Labour, on Monday night, agreed to suspend its indefinite strike planned to commence on Tuesday.
The resolution followed over five hours of deliberations between the federal government, leaders of the Nigerian Labour Congress (NLC) and the Trade Union Congress (TUC) at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.
A 13-point communique read at the end of the meeting by the Minister of Labour, Simon Lalong, said both the labour leaders had agreed to suspend their planned indefinite strike earlier slated to begin on Tuesday, for 30 days.
The NLC President, Joe Ajaero, and his TUC counterpart as well as some ministers and some top government officials attended the meeting.
Lalong said the Memorandum shall be filed with the relevant court of competent jurisdiction within one week as consent judgment by the federal government.
The NLC President, Joe Ajaero, said the unions would revisit the agreement if the federal government fails to fulfill its demands.
