The Nigerian Labour Congress has instructed Nigerian workers to remain home as the nationwide strike begins today, June 3.

The NLC confirmed this in a post on their X account this morning, June 3.

The decision by Organised Labour to prolong its across-the-nation strike came after a stalemate meeting with the Federal Government and National Assembly leaders over a new national minimum wage and the reversal of the recent increase in power rates.

Labour unions argue that the current minimum wage of ₦30,000 is inadequate for the well-being of Nigerian workers. The award expires in April 2024, five years after former President Muhammadu Buhari signed the Minimum Wage Act of 2019. The Act should be revised every five years to ensure that it meets the current economic demands of workers.

Labour later gave the Federal Government a May 31 deadline for a new minimum wage. On May 31, the Labour union called a statewide strike beginning Monday, June 3, 2024, due to the government committee’s inability to agree on a new minimum wage and a reversal of an electricity pricing rise.

During the unsuccessful discussions with the government, Labour rejected three government proposals, the most recent being N60,000. The TUC and NLC withdrew from discussions and demanded a new minimum wage of ₦497,000.

Why I Refused To Align Any Political Party In Nigeria—Yakubu Gowon

Former Head of State Gen. Yakubu Gowon (retd) has explained why he refused to align any political party in Nigeria.

Yakubu Gowon

Gowon, 90, announced on Wednesday, November 27, in Abuja while receiving the League of Northern Democrats (LND), which former Kano State governor Senator Ibrahim Shekarau leads.

The elder statesman emphasised his patriotism for Nigeria, citing his military background as a driving force for his commitment to serving the country.

“I’ve always believed in taking the best from all ideologies, be it socialism, capitalism, or others, and applying them for the greater good.

“During my time in government, we valued diverse perspectives, but decisions were always made in the interest of the people and the nation.”

The former Head of State argued that the North had to make sacrifices to alleviate fears of one region’s dominance, especially considering its size and population. He stated that the idea emerged from prolonged consultations with political leaders, chiefs, and diverse groups.

At the time, he stated widespread concern in the South about the North’s dominance, which nearly led to calls for independence from all regions—west, east, and even the North.

“If we had allowed it, what would we call ourselves today? We might have ended up with separate nations—Yoruba, Igbo, Hausa, or otherwise. I hesitate to say more, as I might risk offending someone here.”

Gowon expressed sadness at the current challenges facing the North, such as the rise of groups like the Lukurawa from Mali, claiming that their activities have further exacerbated the region’s woes.

Gen. Gowon led Nigeria as a military commander for nine years, from 1966 to 1975, before being deposed by a military junta.
