BREAKING: Court stops NLC, TUC from nationwide strike
On Friday, the National Industrial Court of Nigeria (NICN) issued an interim injunction halting the planned nationwide strike scheduled to begin on November 14 by members of organized labor, including the Nigerian Labour Congress (NLC) and the Trade Union Congress (TUC), along with their affiliates.
According to reports Justice Benedict Kanyip, the court’s president, granted this order while ruling on an ex-parte application. This application was presented by the Attorney General of the Federation (AGF) on behalf of the Federal Government and argued by Tijani Gazali (SAN), Acting Director (Civil Appeals) of the Federal Ministry of Justice.
Justice Kanyip specified that this order would remain in effect until the determination of a motion on notice for interlocutory injunctions, which has also been filed by the AGF.
Citing authority under sections Section 7(1) and 19(a) of the NICN Establishment Act, the judge highlighted the court’s power to consider such ex-parte applications and issue orders when a strike is anticipated but has not yet commenced, as is the situation in this case.
