Kogi civil servants, banks join NLC strike


Civil servants in Kogi State on Tuesday complied with the directive of the Central Working Committee of the Nigeria Labour Congress and the Trade Union Congress, ordering all workers to proceed on strike from midnight on Tuesday.

A visit to the Kogi State Secretariat along Zone 8 road showed no worker turned up for work on Tuesday morning. The only persons at work were security personnel at the premises.

Similarly, our correspondent paid a visit to one of the new-generation banks whose doors were firmly closed with only the security personnel seen on duty.


The state Chairman of NLC, Comrade Gabriel Amari, said from Wednesday (tomorrow) all banks would be shut.

“As for health institutions, we are expecting all patients to be discharged latest tonight and the hospitals will fully comply by Wednesday,” Amari said.
