As the NLC president, Joe Ajaero, was attacked, the members were outraged.
A midnight strike has been called by the NLC and the TUC for workers across the nation.
The Imo State Government’s deadlock with them had led the NIC to stop them from striking.

“All workers in Nigeria are hereby directed to withdraw their services effective 12:00 midnight today, November 13, 2023,” the unions said in a joint statement.
“All affiliates and state councils of NLC/TUC are directed to issue circulars for maximum compliance, and these circulars will be made available to the national secretariats or posted to the NEC and CWC WhatsApp platforms.
