Organized labour unions in Rivers State have warned of possible industrial actions that could disrupt national economic activities if President Bola Tinubu does not reverse the emergency rule imposed on the state.
In a joint statement, the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC), the Trade Union Congress (TUC), and the Joint Negotiation Council (JNC) expressed concern over the economic and social impact of the emergency declaration. The unions highlighted disruptions in workers’ salaries and a decline in investor interest in the state’s development plans.
They called for the reinstatement of suspended officials and urged the federal government to engage in dialogue to prevent further escalation, warning of strategic union actions if their demands are not met.
