NLC AND TUC SHOULD DECLARE TOTAL STRIKE ACTION
I support the move by labour and civil society to resist the oppressive tendencies of the state and all its collaborators. There is no need for a prolonged meeting on this matter. It has been all promises no concrete action. And people are buying yacht and billion billion cars for their wives while the masses hold the short end of the stick. Enough is enough.
The Tinubu administration has shown that it has no regard for labour. The Uzodinma government insulted the collective mentality of all labour unions and subjected the symbol of their leadership to unprovoked terror and humiliation. It is totally unacceptable.
The state unleashed terror on NLC President, who was only deploying civil and lawful means to register a protest. The reaction from NLC and TUC must be reciprocal, decisive and equal to the terror from the state and its collaborations or else they should forget that they are labour unions.
Let there be a total strike and showdown until the government would do the needful.
This should not be a matter for a long debate by NLC and TUC. The foundation of their very existence has been challenged by the state and it must be resisted with all available labour forces and remedies.
