    National grid restored as NLC, TUC suspend strike

    The National Union of Electricity Employees reported that the national grid had been restored after the Nigerian Labour Congress and Trade Union Congress terminated their strike. 

    Adebiyi Adeyeye, the NUEE National President, confirmed this to newsmen in an interview on Tuesday.

    “The strike has been suspended, which means the grid has come back to normal. It is on already,” Adeyeye told our correspondent over the phone.

    Chronicle NG reported earlier that organised labour on Monday began a nationwide strike over the Federal Government’s refusal to raise the proposed minimum wage from N60,000 and reverse the Band A tariff to N65 per kilowatt-hour instead of N206/KWh.

    In response, the electrical workers took action by shutting down the national grid, throwing the country into darkness in the early hours of Monday.

    The Transmission Company of Nigeria stated in a statement on Monday that its staff on duty were attacked and injured by union leaders who invaded its premises to force them to leave.

    However, Adeyeye denied the charge, claiming that the union only withdrew its members in accordance with organised labour directives.

    The organised labour has postponed the strike for five days in order to begin negotiations with the Federal Government on a minimum wage of more than N60,000.

    However, at the time of filing this report, it was gathered that the grid has not been fully restored as a blackout lingered in several states.
