The Federal Government has asked the organised Labour to shelve its planned strike slated to commence on Tuesday.
The government reminded the Nigeria Labour Congress and the Trade Union Congress of a restraining order issued by the National Industrial Court, Abuja, on Friday.
The TUC President, Festus Osifo, had announced at a press conference in Abuja on Monday that the labour action would commence on Tuesday in protest against the alleged assault on the President of the NLC, Joe Ajaero by suspected thugs in Owerri, Imo State, on November 1.
President of National Industrial Court, Justice Benedict Kanyip, had restrained the labour centres and their affiliates from embarking on any form of strike.
