The Nigerian Government has invited Organised Labour for a meeting to address and find a lasting solution to the ongoing nationwide strike.
Organised labour consists of the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) and the Trade Union Congress (TUC).
The meeting, which was summoned by the National Security Adviser (NSA), Nuhu Ribadu, would take place on Wednesday, November 15, at the NSA office in Abuja.

The NLC and TUC, on Tuesday, declared an indefinite nationwide strike to protest the assault on the NLC President, Joe Ajaero, and other labour leaders in Owerri, Imo State.
Grievances
Other grievances of Organized Labour include:
Outstanding salary arrears
Unjust declaration of 11,000 workers as ghost employees
Unsettled gratuities
Non-compliance with the N30,000 minimum wage act, and
Declaration of 10,000 pensioners as ghost retirees.
In a move to stop the nationwide strike, the Federal Government went to court and got an order restraining the NLC and TUC from embarking on the industrial action.
However, the unions ignored the court order and commenced the strike.
