The Nigeria Labour Congress and the Trade Union Congress will hold a joint extraordinary National Executive Council meeting by 7 pm today.
This followed their meeting with the National Security Adviser, Nuhu Ribadu.
TUC National Vice President, Tommy Etim, disclosed this in an interview with newsmen in Abuja.
Etim said the NSA briefed the leadership of the organised labour on the steps taken so far.
He also noted that the union leaders secured the commitment of the NSA, adding that the union leaders were satisfied with the NSA’s steps so far.
“We commend the steps taken so far by the NSA. He made us understand that he didn’t see the issue on the ground as a political fight. He also noted that two people have been arrested in line with the brutalisation of Ajaero. Initially, the government felt the strike would not hold. They were shocked to see that we went ahead with our threats.
“We are going to have an extraordinary joint NEC this evening by 7 pm and I can tell you there is hope.”
