Posted on October 11, 2021 By Admin No Comments on Organized Labour Begins Strike In Cross River

Organized Labour in Cross River State, (Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC), Trade Union Congress of Nigeria (TUC) and the State Joint Public Service Negotiating Council) has directed workers in the state and local government, to remain at home from tomorrow, Tuesday, October 12, 2021, over the inability of the state governor, Ben Ayade, to meet the demands of Labour in the state.

Full implementation of minimum wage to state and local government workers.
