Strike: PASAN Members Block Entrance, Exit To National Assembly
Both the entry and exit of the National Assembly have been blocked by members of the Parliamentary Staff Association of Nigeria (PASAN), an affiliate of the Nigeria Labour Congress.
This development is not far from the Labour Union pressing hard on their demands from the federal government.
Some of the workers who reportedly arrived early to monitor the compliance discovered the entrance and exit gates blocked with two coastal buses.
Moreover, the situation was not also different at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport Abuja, as our reporter observed that intending passengers travelling by air can no longer gain access to the airport, following a blockade by the striking workers.
Recall that following failure to reach a compromise on a new minimum wage by the tripartite committee set up by the Federal Government, the organised labour comprising the Nigeria Labour Congress and Trade Union Congress commenced a nationwide strike today.
The development has already led to the shutdown of the national grid.
