Deliberations between the federal government and the Ayuba Wabba-led Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) have ended in a deadlock.
According to reports of the press Men at the venue of the meeting, the NLC delegation to the meeting, led by its President, Mr Ayuba Wabba, walked out of the negotiation following the inability of the two parties to reach an agreement.
Mr Wabba thereafter told journalists that the strike will hold on Wednesday as planned.
This is contrary to the agreement the Joe Ajaero-led faction of the Nigeria Labour Congress
(NLC) had with the federal government team led by Edo State Governor Adams Oshiomhole.
The leadership of the NLC have been divided over the threat to embark on the national industrial action in an attempt to coerce the government to revert the increase in price of petrol.
The National Industrial Court, earlier on Tuesday restrained the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) from going on its planned strike on Wednesday, pending the hearing and determination of a suit brought before it by the Attorney General of the Federation (AGF).
The Attorney General, Abubakar Malami, dragged the NLC to the Industrial Court, seeking an order of the court restraining the NLC from proceeding with the planned strike.
He had sought the order on the ground that the strike would paralyse the nation’s economy.
