TUC Blows Hot, Threatens Strike As Fuel Scarcity Lingers
The Trade Union Congress, TUC, on Sunday declared its intentions to commence on strike if the fuel scarcity in the country continues.
The treasurer of the union, Mohammad Yunusa opened up on their plan to journalists during the just concluded delegate conference of the Senior Staff Association of Statutory Corporations and Government-Owned Companies (SSASCGO) in Abuja.
He demanded that the federal government apprehend and punish those responsible for the fuel scarcity in the country.
He said: “We will soon direct workers to stop going to work if the challenge of fuel scarcity across the country persists for the next few days.
“The congress also demanded that President Muhammadu Buhari should swing into action by identifying and punishing those who caused the scarcity that has brought untold hardship upon Nigerians.
“The union’s position is very clear. Those who caused this scarcity should be identified and punished very well.
“The position of SSASCGOC is that workers should stop going to work until there is enough fuel to take them to work.
“This is the way to do it. We are waiting for our centre to respond to our position but our position in SSASCGOC is that there is no need to go to work and when there is regular supply, then we will start going to work.”
