The Federal Government has summoned the leaders of the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) and the Trade Union Congress of Nigeria (TUC) to an emergency meeting later this evening at Aso Villa, Conference Room of the Office of the Chief of Staff to the President.
POLITICS NIGERIA reports that the meeting is seen as a last-ditch effort to avert the planned nationwide strike on October 3.
Sources say the government had earlier fixed the meeting for 12 noon today but had to be shifted to the evening to enable Organised Labour to reach out to their leaders outside Abuja.
The NLC and its TUC counterpart received the government’s invitation this morning through the Ministry of Labour and Employment.
