The Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) asked its members nationwide to return to work on Wednesday after ending a two-day warning strike.
Recall that the NLC went on a two-day statewide strike on Tuesday and Wednesday because the Federal Government had violated its promises on the removal of petrol subsidy.
NLC President Joe Ajaero, however, praised Nigerian workers for taking part in the strike and claimed that a substantial advancement had been made in a statement.

Ajaero stated: “We are pleased to report that, thanks to your resolute commitment, we have made significant strides in achieving the goals set during our National Executive Council (NEC) meeting, which prompted the initiation of this warning strike,” Ajaero said.
“It is abundantly clear that our united message has resonated loudly with the government, and it would take a truly inattentive ear not to hear it.
“As we mark the end of the two-day nationwide warning strike today, at the stroke of midnight, we earnestly call upon you all to gracefully conclude the strike and return to work tomorrow, in accordance with our initial agreement.”
