On Monday morning, workers in Imo State were barred from entering the secretariat along Port Harcourt-Owerri road as the Nigerian Labour Congress (NLC) and Trade Union Congress (TUC) embarked on a strike.

The secretariat’s gates were locked as early as 8am with officials of the NLC and TUC preventing workers from gaining access to their offices

The strike is reportedly a response to the government’s failure to meet the labour unions’ demands, including a increase in the minimum wage.

The action has grounded activities at the secretariat, leaving many workers stranded and unable to perform their duties. Many workers were seen sitting on the pavement outside the secretariat. (Nation)
