Regina Otokpa, Abuja

 

Following the walk out on Federal Government by Organised Labour during a meeting to resolve the issues of Petroleum price increase and electricity tariff on Sunday night, Labour has said there was no strike option on the table.

Addressing newsmen on Monday in Abuja, Deputy President Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC), Comrade Joe Ajaero, maintained that the walk out could mean an expression of anger given government’s insincerity to the issues under contention.
