The leadership of the organised labour have raised an alarm over the presence of military officers at the venue of its negotiation with the federal government.
This was disclosed in a tweet by the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) on Monday, June 3, shortly after the arrival of the unions’ leadership at the office of the secretary to the government of the federation for negotiation.
The labour threatened that any intimidation by the government on the leadership of the unions would worsen the situation.
One of the tweets reads:
“Soldiers are Presently surrounding the venue of the meeting between Labour and Government at the premises of the SGF.
“Any Attempt to Intimidate, Provoke or Blackmail Our Leaders at The Negotiation Table would worsen the issue and further Prolong our action indefinitely. Our Leaders are acting in accordance with the directives of Our Organs. Viva! Organized Labour, Viva! Working People Of Nigeria!”
