The four-point resolution of the meeting between the Federal Government and the Organised Labour, which was reached late Monday night, has been presented to President Bola Tinubu for further action on Tuesday.

The report was presented to President Tinubu at the Aso Rock Villa by the Minister of Finance, Wale Edun, in company of some Ministers and top officials of the Federal Government.

LEADERSHIP reports that the meeting was conveyed by the Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF), George Akume, in the wake of the indefinite strike action embarked upon by members of the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) and Trade Union Congress (TUC) on Monday, to press home their demands for a new national minimum wage and reversal of the recent electricity tariff hike.

The Labour Unions had earlier withdrawn from the negotiation table with the Tripartite Committee on the National Minimum Wage following the offer of N60,000 from the current N30,000 by the Federal Government.

However, Akume summoned the meeting to persuade the Labour leaders to stop the strike action following its devastating effects on the socio-economic lives of Nigerians on its first day.

In a statement issued at the end of the marathon meeting endorsed by the Ministers of Information and that of Labour and Employment, Mohammed Idris and Nkiruka Onyejeocha, respectively, on the part of the Federal Government, and NLC and TUC Presidents, Joe Ajaero and Festus Osifo, respectively, on the part of the Organised Labour, on Monday, the meeting agreed on a four-point resolution as a pathway to ending the industrial dispute.

“The President, Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces, Federal Republic of Nigeria is committed to a National Minimum Wage that is higher than N60,000;

“Arising from the above, the Tripartite Committee is to meet everyday for the next one week with a view to arriving at an agreeable National Minimum Wage;

“Labour in deference to the high esteem of the President, Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces, Federal Republic of Nigeria’s commitment in (ii) above undertakes to convene a meeting of its organs immediately to consider this commitment; and

“No worker would be victimised as a result of the industrial action,” the resolutions read.

Consequently, on Tuesday morning, the Organised Labour suspended the indefinite strike action for one week.

A joint National Executive Council (NEC) meeting of both NLC and TUC approved to relax the industrial action for one week with immediate effect.

LEADERSHIP gathered that the development followed the tentative agreement reached between the Federal Government and the Organised Labour on the new national minimum wage on Monday night with a resolution to further engage daily for the next one week at the level of the Tripartite Committee on National Minimum Wage until a final agreement is reached.

The Federal Government had assured the Labour leaders that President Tinubu was committed to paying a new monthly minimum wage above the initial offer of N60,000.
