    Just In: Electricity Workers To Joined NLC, Declare Nationwide Strike


    By Our Correspondent

    Electricity workers under the aegis of the National Union of Electricity Employees (NUEE) have joined the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) planned strike against the fuel subsidy removal by the federal government.

    Should the electricity workers commence the strike on Wednesday, the nation will experience a blackout, DAILY GIST reports.

    NUEE disclosed this in a memo signed by its general secretary, Dominic Igwebike.

    The memo reads: “Sequel to the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) Emergency National Executive Council (NEC) meeting held on June 2. 2023 at the Labour house Abuja, over the sudden removal of fuel subsidy, which has brought untold hardship to Nigerians as well as increased inflation in the economy, the NLC has directed that the nationwide withdrawal of Services action will commence on Wednesday, June 7, 2023.”

    The planned strike will see electricity employees nationwide withdraw their services by midnight on Wednesday.

    “Please note that withdrawal of Services nationwide commences from 0.00 hours of Wednesday, June 7, 2023,” the memo added.
