Nigeria's airspace is likely to be shut down from Monday, September 28, as the aviation unions in the country said, they are in full support of the move made by the Labour Unions to embark on an indefinite strike starting from Monday, September 28.
The Unions which include, The National Union of Air Transport Employees, National Association of Aircraft Pilots and Engineers, Air Transport Services Senior Staff Association of Nigeria, and the Association of Nigeria Aviation Professionals have directed all workers in the sector to withdraw their services from Nigeria airports and join the planned nationwide strike.
The Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) and the Trade Union Congress (TUC) called the strike to protest the hike in power and petrol prices by the Muhammadu Buhari led administration.
A letter signed by the Aviation Unions reads: “As you are aware, the Nigeria Labour Congress and the Trade Union Congress of Nigeria have declared indefinite nationwide strike action with effect from Monday, September 28, 2020.
“Our unions as above named are in full support of the strike action.
“As such all workers in the aviation sector are hereby directed to withdraw their services at all aerodromes nationwide as from 00hrs of 28th September 2020 until otherwise communicated by the NLC/TUC or our unions.
“All workers shall comply."
"The general public, particularly airport users, aviation concerns, and agencies are hereby notified accordingly."
Solidarity forever!!!
