Atiku Pleads With Labour Leaders To Save Nigeria Economy

PDP Presidential candidate, Abubakar Atiku has joined his voice to good will Nigerian to call on the Labour not to proceed on strike because of its effect on Nigeria economy.

The former Vice President urged both organised labour and Federal Government to exercise restraint and avoid creating situations that will plunge the nation into deeper crises.

“Our economy is already on its knees and escalation of this crisis into full blown industrial strike action may have dire consequences for our nation.” Organised labour has planned to embark on industrial action from Tuesday in demand of N30,000 as new minimum wage. The Federal Government offered to pay workers N24,000, while the states agreed to pay N22,500. (NAN)
