Organised labour has instructed workers in the power sector to embark on an indefinite strike over pending labour issues with the Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN).
The National Union of Electricity Employees (NUEE ) on Tuesday converged on the headquarters of the TCN in Abuja.
They said this is a prelude to an indefinite strike action expected to start on August 17.
In a circular entitled “call to action”, Joe Ajaero, the general secretary of NUEE, instructed the workers to ensure total compliance, promising to paralyse operations of TCN across Nigeria over anti-masses activities.
The circular read in part, “You are hereby enjoined to mobilise immediately for serious picketing of TCN Headquarters and stations nationwide over the directive by the TCN Board that all PMs in acting capacity going to AGM must appear for a promotion interview.
“This action takes effect from Tuesday, August 16 2022 and total withdrawal of services commences on Wednesday, August 17 2022. Ensure full compliance in all the stations nationwide.”
