Day two of the indefinite strike embarked upon by the Organised Labour over the assault on the President of the Nigeria Labour Congress, NLC, Joe Ajaero as well as unmet demands by the federal government.

Nineteen unions have so far directed their workers to comply with the directive of the two labour centres, NLC and the Trade Union Congress, TUC. Though compliance on the first day of the industrial action around the country was poor.

Some of the unions fully on board are the Senior Staff Associations of Nigerian Universities, SSANU, Parliamentary Staff Association of Nigeria, PASAN and the Nigeria Union of Railway Workers.

Also, the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) wrote to its zonal coordinators and chairpersons to comply with the directives of the national secretariat of the NLC.

Inspiration FM visited the University of Lagos, UNILAG and a lecturer who preferred anonymity, said though they received the memo from ASUU, compliance was poor.

However, the Congress of Nigerian University Academics (CONUA) has said that its members are not part of the ongoing nationwide strike as it was not consulted by the organizing bodies of NLC and TUC.
