Happening Now: NLC Occupy Ikorodu Road In Lagos (Photos)

Looks like the Nigerian Labour Congress (NLC) still took to the street despite court order not to embark on the proposed strike.
A twitter user @ottinox posted the photos below showing members of the congress on Ikorodu road with a banner just awhile ago.


Also,the General Executive Secretary of Medical and Health Workers Union, north central, Richard Gbamwuan, in an interview with a newspaper, shortly after an emergency NEC meeting of the NLC held in Abuja on Tuesday, said that they were going ahead with the proposed strike.
“We have resolved to go ahead with the protest nationwide, as far as we are concerned, we are yet to be aware of any court injunction,” he said.
“And if there is any court injunction, we are just doing what federal government is fond of doing. The same Industrial court had stopped federal government from increasing electric tariff but till date federal government ignored us, they still went ahead, so we are embarking on the protest.”
Meanwhile, some members of the Trade Union Congress(TUC) allegedly pulled out of the nationwide strike called by the Nigerian Labor Congress.
