Warning strike: Organised Labour directs C’River workers to resume Wednesday

The Organised Labour in Cross River State has directed state civil servants to return to work on Wednesday.
The directive is contained in a statement signed by Mr Monday Ogbodum, the state Chairman of the Trade Union Congress, and made available to journalists on Tuesday.
Ogbodum stated that the directive followed the success of the two-day warning strike over the non-implementation of the new minimum wage by the government.
He stated that negotiations between the State government and Organised labour would resume on Thursday.
“The strike committee wants to thank all workers for their total compliance in the just concluded warning strike from Sunday midnight, November 24 to Tuesday, November 26.
“This demonstrates our collective resolve to ensure that our workers get their due.
“We appreciate your resilience, not minding the excruciating working conditions we are subjected to.
“It is our firm belief that together we can move mountains,” the statement added.
It would be recalled that the workers had embarked on the warning strike after the negotiation between labour and the government broke down.
