So far in here within this country , the current government fast forwarded plans to repositioning the national economy. Basically for the best holding interest cut across an existing federating states. Has also spark so much curiosities , questionings and moves among some selected strong opposition parties. Which further do get leading to so many nature of criticism , upon that, whole lots of projections ever since the new government took over and gets stated his kind of transitional plans to change the national economy landscape for possible best shapes. Seriously , nothing here than even more hardship within the country.
To such an extent that touched those National Labour Congress (NLC)
. The NLC whose defined interest is largely set upon their members body , which are mainly an existing civil work force or government workers aside military and all existing union for various field of business endeavoring across the country.
Is quite obvious that their main purpose is to protect , defend , organise and speak for their existing members interest over their possible well beings and working standard and standard of living among others.
In absolute absence of all of that , instead terrible hardship that ,that vast majority can't actually cope. Due to the current government and the economy situation in the country. The NLC have since yesterday the 14 of November 2023 embark on an indefinite strike.
Their main reason for embarking on such nature of strike is to reach out and have desirable understanding with the government
Various headings towards the making of the strike
There have been so many things that made the NLC as a well organized organization to embarked on an indefinite strikes before this recent. Even this ongoing Nationwide Strike isn't the first ever since the new and current government get on board. For this very ongoing indefinite strike is as a direct result from all that are going on in the country. Most especially that on transport fare is quite a problem .
Imagine some body going to work at least five times a week at a length and would be paying more than a double to whatever has been paid , before to that same destination . Moreso , will be buying high price on a very small portion of goods . That if at all compare to what has been would note that there is serious high in prices of things ,some double their previous prices while some gets more than doubling up previous prices seen now 💰 money seems no to have values at all. Because of highcost on goods .

As get seen visible enough reasons for given strike embarkment are as follows :
- Good governance saves lives
- No to fuel subsidy
- Probe corruption in NNPC
- Corruption increase protest , fight it
Truth is that this country is being seriously known to be full of corrupt leaders ,right on both level . That of states level and that of the federal levels. So , the NLC protesting as direct result for fighting our corrupt enough calibre of leaders through protesting against and seriously embarking on an indefinite strike is just more as routine kind of strikes here.
The main reason for this very ongoing nationwide strike happened as direct result from the current price of per liter sales on fuel as well as all petroleum products , such as diesel , kerosene and gas importantly petrol or fuel itself.
Seen due to the high in the prices on petroleum products , most especially that of petrol or fuel as a direct result for Subsidy Removal proposed by the Mr. President and acted upon by various concerning entities. Have been making things to be so hard for everybody around this country , may be except you are truly made and wanting nothing . That , meant you can afford any thing at any price tag and rate. People like myself are not finding it very candid at all . Because the high in prices of fuel also get added to the high in prices to those others articles of necessities or can't do without food stuffs.
That should be the brains behind given protests.

The strike came quite sudden and serious seen both schools primary and secondary mainly government schools are closed also 🏦 banks and railways. Things are just too unbearable here across all the federating states.
The actual Economies Effects as direct result from given nationwide strike
Since the strike was not only about those NLC protesting and voicing out their actual needs and reasons for their protest to the , concerns organs of government.
Instead get on to blocked some vital area of economy , like railways mostly that of 🏦 banks.
Base on such length I personally thought indeed their actions also contribute and get to affect the already worsening state of the national economies.
That which get happening as the results of subsidy removal that , further cost petroleum products to be high in price.
Seen as follows are those nature of an effects directly bringing about as result of Nationwide strike :
- Slowing down of an educational speed
- Reduction of daily productivities
- Projection of protest and showcasing of grievances
- Business distraction and unnecessary adjustment
Economies Effects
The Realities are that the given nationwide strike is capable of slowing down speed of teaching and learning among both public schools pupils and students , that depending on how long the strike going to last.
Moreso , the energy those NLC uses to exercise this ongoing protest also capable of reducing productivities in terms daily workload which supposed have been carrying out . Most especially those bankers or banks related workers , because NLC has also order Bank closed.
Personally I don't see strikes as the only means whereby the concerns organized body uses to reach out to the government to discuss all of their likely interest and grievances. Seen that , this very medium the headship usually as most people talk about capable of reaching an understanding onto his personal interest that just for his own pocket. Since it would be only those front leaders are allowed to meet up and reach meaningful understanding on the behalf of their existing members and unions. Seen those few leaders could always get seize the opportunity to attract wealth for themselves . Then called off the strikes , when the conditions persist and they get push again to get against the government . They then fine some other reasons to add up to embark on an indefinite strike.
I think such could the reason even one of the NLC leader , their president got abducted . That is also part for this their ongoing protest.
Seen most people might have set the goals for the week already and have their plans . The sudden indefinite strike embarking by the members of NLC would seriously distract people plans and subsequently brings about an unnecessary adjustment. In which these days involved during the strike can't get gain up.
In such worsening state of national economy like that of this country , seriously NLC should devise better ways to reach out to government in more better ways that guaranteed transparency and brings about openness in close relations to their seeking settlement. Instead of this time wasting strikes nature for their bargaining for themselves.
