Imo State Workers Go On Strike Over Unpaid Salaries

Labour leaders in Imo state have called an indefinite strike action in the state, halting all government activities.

The situation is said to have been broiling for a while over reports that the government was planning to cut salaries.

The state’s chairman of Nigeria Labour Congress, NLC, Mr. Austen Chilakpu, ordered all workers to remain in their respective homes until otherwise directed.

The decision was made on the basis of the government’s failure to paid owed salaries and allowances.
