WORKERS SUSPENDS 3-DAY STRIKE IN EBONYI STATE

After three days warning strike which was declared on
January 21, Public Servants in Ebonyi state, under the
umbrella of Trade Union Congress, on Monday resumed work.
The union Chairman in the state, Mr Ikechukwu Nwafor
, while
speaking on the development told newsmen in Abakaliki that
the suspension of the strike was in line with past labour laws.
He said the workers embarked on the action just to draw
government’s attention to their plights. Some of their
demands include the payment of the seized September 2011
salaries because of their participation in the 2011 industrial
action in the state and the implementation of the 18 per cent
minimum wage.
