There are currently indications that the nation’s electricity supply crisis might worsen from Wednesday, as the Organized Labour has ordered its workers in the power sector to shut down tools and begin an indefinite strike over pending Labour issues with the Transmission Company of Nigeria, -TCN.
Under the banner of the National Union of Electricity Employees, -NUEE, as a percussor to the strike, the aggrieved workers have already scheduled to picket the Abuja national Headquarters of TCN come Tuesday.
In a circular announced by the General Secretary of NUEE, Joe Ajaero, titled “Call for Action”, to Senior Assistant General Secretaries and Zonal Organising Secretaries dated August 15, 2022, the Union directed them (the workers) to ensure total and complete compliance with the directive.
