The Nigeria Labour Congress, NLC, says it would continue with the nationwide strike, pending the outcome of its meeting scheduled for today, Tuesday.

The labour unions had on Monday embarked on a nationwide strike seeking an increase in the national minimum wage.

But the Federal Government has convened a meeting with the labour unions late evening of Monday, agreeing to pay something above N60,000 as the minimum wage.

However, the NLC, in a post on its X handle early Tuesday, said the strike continues, pending the outcome of their meeting with organs of the unions.

“Until we hear from our organs at our meeting scheduled for today 4th June, we are still on strike,” the NLC statement read.
